Q:
Have any of you reloaders tried Barnes 210 grain TTSX tipped bullets in 338 caliber? I bought a box and can't wait to get to the range with that 338-06 and some of these loads. Man that is one aerodynamic bullet. The ballistic coefficient is well over 400. Got any pet loads or powder reccommendations? Act fast the F&S TSA-like police might delete this question.

210 GR. NOS PART

Winchester 760

Min: 57.0 2621 52,500 PSI

Max: 61.0 2747 59,700 PSI

Use Federal 210 or Winchester Large Rifle Primer.

Personally, I would drop 1 1/2 grains and use Federal 215 Large Magnum Rifle or Winchester Large Magnum with this powder.

***Don't use CCI 200 with Win760, experienced hang fires due to week primers.

Did you get any reasoning behind the removal of your posting? I don't get it.

Del, I suspect they may have done that because your picture of that beautiful call depicted your name and address clearly. I can't think of any other reason.These should be great bullets for you although I havn't shot that particular one.

Del, see if you can come across some Lake City Match all the same year group in 30-06. They make absolutely perfect 338-06!

Hey Del, your back yard would make a good 30 yard archery range, S/E corner to N/W corner. LOL!

Del,

Don't use data for Nosler Partitions, Hornady, or other soft jacketed bullets with Barnes Triple Shocks or TTSX. Start with the loads in the Barnes manual #4 and use LR primers.

Del, I'd appreciate your sharing your reloads for the .338-06. Bee has my email address. Gunsmith assures me I'll have mine this fall.
