Remember to start your bullets IAW the Barnes Manual - I think it's a tenth off the lands.

My experiance with X bullets leads me to think that your rifle either likes them or hates them. The .338 and up rifles seem to like'em more often than sub-.338 caliber rifles.

I'm going to send this post over to Reloading and see if we can get more answers there..
