load data 150 gr. TSX .308??

[HBchevelle68]

Just picked up some .308 Barnes TSX bullets for hunting (150 gr). Been doin research on some loads but wanted your guys' opinons

I measured it and compared to the 175smk' s i normally shoot its about .010 longer. I also know the sectional desity differs since its all copper.

Any load data you guys can share would be great! Im using varget.

Per Barnes #4 Book Varget 150gr TSX or TTSX 43.5Gr -2681FPS-Min and 48grs-2912FPS-Max load Also Load Density is 105%. You will do better with Win748 with a max of 48grs-2926FPS and load Density of 94%(use mag Primer) or H335 with 45.5gr max -2888FPS and Load Density of 87%. Then there is BL-C(2) at 50grs-2980FPS-mag primer-load density of 96%
Their most accurate load was H4895 42.5grs--2701FPS min to 45gr-2854FPS-max load-load density99%

I use the Max Win748 load. However the 130gr TTSX bullet works even better in the 308Win for deer/pigs as they can be pushed faster and that really helps expansion with the Barnes bullets. Also the TTSX(tipped) bullets open faster than the TSX(non-tipped) bullets according to Barnes and seems to be the way it is in the field.
