    Any Barnes fans out there?

    I quit using Barnes X bullets in 2001. I shot a Kudu with my 338 Win mag at about 150 yds, hit him hard in the lung area, one or two drops of blood. I was lucky the guides found him the next morning or I would have lost a $1,500.00 animal. I have killed two very large moose with that same load...

    Reloading for my 6.5/06

    I never load bullets larger than 125 grs. in my 6.5-06. It just doesn't seem to like the heavy bullets. I seat all my loads out to the lands and back them off about 10/1000. This gives me my best groups. Be safe, have fun!
