So what does everyone think of using 130gr barnes TTSX bullets on northern minnesota whitetail? I shoot a remington 700 30-06, i would say my shots are all under 400 yards. My thoughts are that since barnes bullets retain their weight so well i am able to drop down in grains. Just wanted to see what...

hey rick, i have heard something about being off the land a certain amount but not on that amount. my bullets didnt come with anything saying what amount or anything. any tips would be great as this will be my first time with the barnes. i have wanted to load barnes for about ooo 10 years but milita...

thanks a lot rafter!!! i can finally work some loads up. you have any idea if the tipped tsx's would be any different charge wise? i cant wait to see how these shoot. thanks once again.

hey rick,
did you ever get that barnes manual? i looked at it today and didnt see the ttsx bullets in there. is there any way you could post a picture of the data for the 130gr tsx's? they would use the same data correct?
thanks

well my buddy has a RRA 2 stage he is willing to sell me for 60. you think that is a fair price? and also whats everyones thoughts on them?

what do you guys think of Jard? and what kinda trigger pull would be decent. it is many going to be used for yotes anf foxes.

Any suggestions on a good AR trigger? I know midway is out of stock on most of theirs, any other places to check? also what kinda poundage would you suggest, i am thinkin 2-3.

well i was to actually shoot a deer within the next month, you would have to catch me doing it. I mean come on what if i shot a nice mature doe. i mean hamburger is darn expensive these days. i am just trying to live off the land, you know like that show "off the grid".

hey rick
thanks a lot for the info. i will definetly will be trying those loads. i wont be able to for about another month but when i do i think it should be a definate deer killer.
thanks once again

imr 4064 and reloader 15

I am going to try some tipped TSX barnes bullets this year for deer. Does anyone have some load data for this? i cant remember what power i have but i think i have some reloader 15 and some 4895 cant remember for sure though.

I have a vlss thumbhole and i love it. i free floated the barrel and the got it shooting under a half inch without much effort. i am certain i can get it to shoot smaller groups easy. the trigger was easy to adjust. one of the major issues is that it is a heavy gun. it get heavy after a day of walki...

well went out to the range today and got decent results. i ended up with a .454 inch group, that was the best of my pressure series. i am hoping to get it tighter yet and should be able to. thanks for the help again guys.

Well i got it finally, it seemed like i had to sand forever. thanks for all the help. going to the range on thursday to shoot. i got a pressure series worked up for with some 32gr v maxes and benchmark. Hopefully it likes it. thanks once again

I have a remington 700 VLS Thumbhole and was wondering how to free float it. I have sanded down the pressure point that is in the forearm of the stock, but it seems that it has created a not so much free floating situation. Also the barrel seems to be touching the right side of the stock when i tigh...
