Barnes recommends 4064 and biggame, IMR4064 is listed as their most accurate , Id work my way closer to max. I get my best accuracy with barnes TSX about a grain off max.

Hi,


I have been using around 56gr of H-4350. The TSX bullet likes to be .050" - .070" off of the rifling to get it;s best accuracy. This bullet works great on game.


Catch you later,
