    Barnes bullets in 30-06

    Maybe I’m not reading this right.

    1:10in twist is faster than a 1:11in twist. You should be perfectly fine. Not sure why the Barnes Tech said you’d be on the edge. Especially if your hunting at higher elevations thinner air is more forgiving then air at sea level.

    Definitely am a fan of the 168 and the 150 TTSX for Mule deer. I think even the TSX bullets are great for the yardages you are looking at.


    Reloading...it’s like knitting for men.

    I meant to mention about the twist rate also. 1-10” should be more than adequate for barnes 180gr tsx.
