    It seems to me that most people, maybe everyone that cut their barrels do so because they fitting a can on the end of it. If you dont cut it its going to be extra long and a little more weight with...

    I have the same rifle, apart from having a dpt and a Bushnell scope. Love it ! I have not tried Sierras in it yet though.

    Amazing that lead core bullets can still kill deer these days :thumbsup: You do know you could have brought the latest trendy monolithic ttsx projectiles for 4x the price and done the same job?

    I had no issue when shooting beyond 200m with the 150sst it killed well, I mainly used the 130ttsx for point blank shooting then swap to the 150 sst for long range shots.

    I have been using the same projectile in my 16" bbl 308 in front of H335 for 2995fps. It has been a very effective killer on sika and reds out to 150 odd metres.

    I dropped a few big reds with the Barnes 130ttsx over 50gr of 2208 ( max compressed load ) @ around 3000fps from memory in a 20" 308win. They did a better job at close range than the 150gr sst that...

    After 500 plus rounds the original 50 bits of brass were getting too hard so I gave her a birthday & prepped up some new brass. Did a quick ladder test with the new Hornady 225 ELDM, the brass...

    Ran 130ttsx out of 22inch 308 for quite a while and claimed many deer sub 350y with it. In my experience the barnes need fairly high impact speeds to work well (light for cal going like f) and...
