Here's a Barnes 290gr TEZ I shot this morning with 5gr Clays Internal./60gr IMR 4198 at 100yds. The back stop at the range consists of small rocks, gravel, and dirt. You can see where I knurled the bullet and the knurling is mostly smoothed away at the base of the bullet, about 1/8" total all the way around.  I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that bullet has some engraving going on That is exactly how my Barnes T-EZ and BX bullets look. |

That was smooth sized? or Full Formed? If smooth sized, I stand corrected. I was thinking of a way to capture a bullet with out destroying it. Thanks for showing! That is what this board is about, learning and sharing. The Barnes 290gr TEZ was smoothed sized so that loading was almost but not quite a drop down the barrel fit, then a light knurl placed on the bullet. |
