Is it just their website that is down? https://www.barnesbullets.com/

Or is there more to it than that? https://www.globenewswire.com/news-...Asset-Acquisition-of-Barnes-Bullets.html

Yay, another shortage.

They are likely doing some work on the website. I wouldn't worry about it. Give it a few hours.

Not for me, I get the same screen as MarineHawk

It's got to be a DNS issue for those that can't get to it now.

Sorry for my ignorance, but what is DNS?

Still not working for me on either phone or PC.
Posted By: MarineHawk Re: Barnes Bullets Down? - 02/03/21
I see. I looked it up. But how could it be a DNS issue when it won't work on either my phone or PC?

Thanks for the up date.

Posted By: FatCity67 Re: Barnes Bullets Down? - 02/03/21
MarineHawk, fug thats a big moose.

Try disconnecting your internet service for a few minutes and turn off all routers and modems.

Same with phone.

You can also try to use a different DNS server, you gotta look that up.

Or just wait it should work itself out in awhile.
Posted By: FatCity67 Re: Barnes Bullets Down? - 02/03/21
Ok nevermind. DNS server caches probably just reset.

And how does one fix that issue? Or is it up to Barnes or my ISP?

Reset your router, let it reboot, try again.

OK, maybe when I'm done for the day. I'll just shut everything down. Wondered if it had anything to do with my Win7 and there no longer being updates to it.

Thanks
Posted By: FatCity67 Re: Barnes Bullets Down? - 02/03/21
Basic steps I posted above Geno.

You can go down the DNS settings rabbit hole online

Usually it fixes itself when the ISP DNS server caches update

If you service uses a separate modem that connects before your router that the one you want to make sure gets disconnected for while.
Posted By: MarineHawk Re: Barnes Bullets Down? - 02/03/21
Thanks for the tips anyway FC67.

Yeah, that Bullwinkle was quite a beast to skin a butcher. He was incidentally the victim of a Barnes bullet.

Old school poncho there!

I think I have one in my hunting gear still.
Posted By: FatCity67 Re: Barnes Bullets Down? - 02/03/21
Depends Geno is your network using a modem router combo or separate modem and router boxes. Usually it's the first box connected to whatever wire is carrying the signal.

That was military issue. We had about 2-1/2 days of driving rain and wind gusts up to insane levels. I was covered in Gore-Tex underneath that poncho as well. we were about 80 miles from the nearest building or road.

Reminds me of the folks that like that lightweight rain gear.

When it really get to blowin' and is cold enough I don't sweat much, my rubberized canvas Helly Hanson stuff is the best thing going.

And that poncho of mine is in the hunting gear for a reason. It can come out when it's raining too hard for the goretex stuff.

Yeah, when it rains long enough, you're eventually going to get wet unless you are not physically working. Eventually, you'll sweat enough that you have to just have enough layers that it hopefully doesn't matter. The old-school military Micky Mouse boots work that way. It's like wearing a tire around your feet. Feet get soaked but stay warm.

Looks like they forgot the 280 Remington. My mountain rifle loves the 140 TTSX but they are not on the website!

That's why the site doesn't work for you. They don't allow the un-Anointed to even view their site now.
