I just noticed that Barnes has began shipping new bullets to retailers. I was able to order some 250gr .451” Bullets for the 450 Bushmaster. There are not cheap but at least they are available.

I've noticed barnes has been available online through a lot of this. If I was using it in a magnum or a woods rifle I wouldn't think twice. But my .308 I want to be able to shoot past 250 without questioning expansion.

Does the barnes not expand after 250 yards?

 

[shaffe48b]

No they don't expand below a certain velocity because they are monolithic bullets.

 

[Martin Looker]

They don't seem to be shipping too many 30 cal 180 grain bullets.

 

[shaffe48b]

I don't see many 180s in stock period. See a few basic cup and core, monolithic, and match bullets.

Thankfully it looks like I am finally set. The two 180s I tried in my new barrel didn't shoot as well for me. The 168 shot really well and the 175 pretty good as well.
