Picked up some accu-bonds, Norma soft point and fusions. I will probably start with the fusions or Norma this year depending on what each gun likes.

If I can find some old school partitions, I’ll likely go back to those.



I like a 120 grain nosler BT for my handloads and a 7-08.

I’ve got some 165’s I’m going to try out in a .308 at some point.

Barnes are the easiest bullet to get good groups FOR ME! They are not as sensitive to bullet jump (to lands) as vld style bullets are. I like them because the produce 2 holes (in and out). I’ve only caught one in a deer. 200lb+ 9 point. He was facing me slightly quartered. I broke the onside shoulder and the bullet lodged under the skin in the ham after breaking the hip.

I’ve shot several deer with a 120 grain NBT out of my 7-08. Very impressive blood trails. The 120 grain NBT in the 7mm is a tough bullet.

I doubt I’ll ever shoot a mono.


Nailed it! The 120gr NBT is THE bullet for the 7-08.

A 7-08 doesn’t have the velocity needed to maximize damage from a 140gr mono.

An 80gr TTSX in a 243 punches way above its weight class.

In about 2 months I’ll know what a 95gr LRX will do to one launched from a 6mm creedmoor.


You're only as good as your worst shot-

You get any bone on that shot?. Exiting out in front of the shoulder like that, he was either quartered away slightly and you took out the opposite shoulder or you started it in just behind the shoulder on the opposite side and just missed the exit side shoulder. Great performance either way. I know that they open like that at 3000-3200 when you get a shoulder but if they open like that at 3600 without catching one, might be time play around some.

Quartering away caught a rib and exited in front of the off shoulder

I switched to a solid bullet after my son shot his first buck(albeit a spike). Was shooting an SST. Grouped great on paper. Made a perfect shot on the deer but jacket and core separated inside the deer and no exit. Deer made it about 50-75 yards into thick pines. No blood trail to follow. Just happened to walk up on it in the dark. After that, I decided I always wanted two holes. Only barnes I haven’t had exit was my daughter’s buck. He was quartering hard to us. Hit him in the neck on the shoulder side. Bullet was lodged just under skin on opposite ham. Deer didn’t make it 5 yards

Barnes recommends light for caliber. I use 120gr in my 7-08 and 130 gr in my 308/30-06. I like exits and get it with the TTSX.
