    Barnes LRX or swift sirocco 150's

    Has anyone tried these in any cal? or even better a 7mm magnum of sorts?
    thinking I may try them in my LRM that is the barnes or swifts.

    Never tried the LRX, but used the TTSX in my 7mm, shot heaps of animals out to 500y, recovered about a dozen from kills.

    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts
