Wanted: Barnes .284 160gr LRX

Recommended Posts

Looking for Barnes 160gr LRX bullets to try in my son's 7PRC. I have at least 3 unopened boxes of Barnes 168gr LRX I'd trade straight across for unopened 160gr LRX bullets.

I have been looking for them locally and cant find them. Even on line they are very hard to find.

My 700 has always loved Barnes. When the X bullet came out I loaded up a bunch of 120's with about 69gr's of RL19. Shot a lot of game with that for 20 years before I used them up. It shoots most everything good, 1 in 9.25 24" barrel. Maybe 1992 or 3? First year they came out with a stainless/composite stock.

Used the Factory Vortex 160gr ammo  a while back that is about 1/2MOA and took a bull at just over 400 yards with power lines in the distance. I have some ADG cases just need to pick a bullet to work with H1000.

If you want to try the Barnes LRX .284 168gr, let me know.  I'll make you a good deal on a box to try.  I've been stocking up on the 168 LRXs since I couldn't find the 160s.  You've always been good to me, so just let me know.
