If they even exist?

We have SPS for Nosler seconds, which makes shooting a lot more affordable. I'd like to try TTSX bullets in my 7mm-08 but they're $35/50.

So does Barnes sell blems/overruns?


P

Un heard of....keep an eye on the classifieds you might find a partial box!

You can try Sinclair, they use to have sample packs.

When I was TDY in the Salt Lake City area a few years ago, and headed down to Bryce Canyon for a weekend, I drove right past the Barnes plant. I emailed them before my return, thinking I'd stop on the way back up, and grab some "seconds".

Their response?

"Nope".

They said Barnes does not deal in "seconds" or "blems".

Stop whinging, I pay au $70.00 for the same packet of 50 here.

I've got a 30/168 TSX without the TSX. 49 normal bullets and one without grooves in the box.

You want to shoot it in your 7-08 and take pics, I will send it to you.

Being a monometal....my guess is Barnes scraps bad bullets and melts them back down. Not possible with a cup and core or bonded bullet

The seconds are in the same box as the firsts, and damn if I can tell the difference.....

You might find some GMX seconds

You might try the GMX blems, I shoot these from a 7mag, click here

Less than a buck a pop??? I'd gladly spend the $35/50.
