Thread: 2206h, Barnes, 308

what loads have people found good with the 130's and also velocity if you no?

Cheers

47gn 2206h fed 210's lapua brass 130 ttsx have done
2950fps out of 16 inch tubes a rem and kimber

I found 49.0 mag primers rem brass 3080fps was printing .5" groups of 3. Good enough for me

Nice mate what length tube?

Just standard 22" on the Forbes . Actually just checked my notes and it was 3100fps. 47 grains was right on 3000

They work really well at that speed,like a super apple corer

I found 2008 was slower but more accurate than 2206H

49gn 2206H, Fed LR Match primer, Lapua brass, Barnes 130 TTSX, gives 3,100fps (actually, 10-20fps more) in my 20" Sako barrel. Very accurate with no signs of excessive pressure.

I found 2208 slow in my 20".
I will go 2206 when I next load TTSX.

About to find out

Any one has tried the 125 gr accubonds ?
How would they perform compared to the barnes?

who is selling the barnes projectiles?

Gunworks, workshop innovation, outdoor supplies plus others

If its worth anything to ya I run 125 Nosler BT with 49grns 2206H going 2970 from a ~17in tube. Clover leaf groups. Have only shot a few things up close but very effective on all accounts. Makes a small splash on grader blade cutting edge out at 400yds

125 SSTs group about the same just very "explody" up close - cheaper projectiles tho

49grains h335 with 130ttsx. Haven't shot the load over a chrony but from shooting at various ranges it works out to be about 2750fps out of a 14.75 inch barrel. Good to 400yds.
