Barnes Originals

[trooper1]

I am having a difficult time loading these down the barrel. It is extremely tight with both harvester and mmps. I do get good accuracy but not as good as I get with cheap remington bullets. I really need to do more load work-ups with this bullet but it is extremely hard to load.
Does anyone else have this issue with Barnes Originals?

You tried the Harvester Crush Rib sabots with them?

Which Harvester are you using with that BO Craig? They do load tight with either the black or orange CRUSHRIB but 1 will load little easier than the other.BTW,the black crushrib will say it is for .452 dia bullets but worry not as it is a excellent choice for the.458 dia bullets/ BO.We owe this discovery to Rossman.
