Somewhat O/T Need .25/06 data for Barnes TSX bullets

[glenn asher]

I can't find any data for .25/06, using the Barnes 100 gr. TSX bullet. I've nosed around their website a bit, and found zipola..... A buddy has ordered some of those bullets and is looking for any specific data that might get him started safely... All we can find is to use X bullet data, and work up slowly (can't find X bullet data, either:mad: ) He wants to use H-4350 or Re-19, since those powders already work well for his other .25/06 needs. Thanks for any help you might render.........

I"ve been shooting 100 gr Ballistic Tips out of my .250SAI.I bought a box of the .25 100 Triple Shox, too. Gonna try em out this coming fall [2007] so I should have time to work up a load.
Wanting to know if the Triple Shox give more or less comparative pressure to other 100 gainers. As usual, will work up from 'below'.
Love the 25s!:)

According to the Barnes website, you would use the data for the Barnes X bullets. Here is a linky to some data for those bullets.

I'm using 52gr of IMR-4350 with them. :D

I'm using IMR-4350 with the 90 X for antelope and 115 TSX for deer and elk in the .25-06. Had great groups with them in a 10" twist by playing with seating depth. Groups in the 6's. Call Barnes and ask for data for whatever powder you're wanting to use and which caliber/bullet weight. They freely share the data they have. I also have bought some 100 grain TSX's and plan to start load testing them. I can't say enough good things about the Barnes TSX bullets. Again, call Barnes, they're very happy to help.

Thanks, fellas, that's the ballpark he was thinking of, in fact. I'll report back after we try them in his rifles, and maybe in mine, too. (I'm pretty happy with some Partitions I got for half-price awhile back, I think I got a barrel life's worth of them!)

I've had very good luck (paper and deer) with IMR4831 and 100TSX. The flier that comes with the bullets says to use X data and 1-2grains over.

I haven't found any real printed data for the TSX bullets.
