Thread: Barnes TSX 55g 224

Keen to try some Barnes TSX 55g 224 projectiles in my 223, anyone have a part box they want to part with, happy to pay for them or swap with any of the below

224 55g HPBT or HPFB Varmint made by x-ring
7mm 162 Amax
7mm 168 berger
7mm 175g RN
various 243 projectiles

Cheers

Still looking, or after some Sierra 55g SBT would be good as well

I think I have a box of 55gr TSX, will check the shed

Only 70gr and 62gr

I think they are no good for Zastava barrels...

Cool thanks, is the 62g a part or full box? Not sure if they will stabilise in my barrel but could be worth trying

Is that cause you want them for your one...

How many 7mm 162 AMAX'S do you have?

More to do with long bullets not stabilising in slow twist barrels, most zastavas are 1:12, some are 1:10 and they go ok in them.

Yeah I think I tried them in mine and they were no good. That could have been the .222 I had though???

Yeah but I've been told in the past for other bullets they won't stabilise, and they have hence why if it's a part box that Gimp has I'd be keen to try a few out to test
