If Barnes makes a TSX in the 180 to 200gr. range, 3,000fps and over is there for you. I'd think a goat-like animal at long range might be better served with a 225gr. Sierra - fast opener and fairly high BC - but then, the X's would also work I'm sure. When I had mine, the Extreme Hodgdon powders, ie: Australian (ADI?) powders weren't available. Today, I'd likely try the equivelence of our H4895 or Varget - preferrably the 4895 especially with lighter (or heavier) bullets, looking for an edge in accuracy. It is easily ignited and can also be used in reduced loads without any fear of detonation - to as low at 50% of the max charge - load for rabbits? Due to the ctg. having much more power than necessary, sacrificing 50 or 75fps for eye-ball accuray accuracy is a good thing, especially when ranges get 'out there'. Just checked their web site - I see a 200gr. TSX. |
