I do have good things to say about Barnes, I just have other bullets I like better. Barnes are the most readily available bullet on the market, they are relatively cheap, and I don't think I've ever had a rifle that I couldn't get them to shoot under 1" MOA. My problem I have with them is their expansion, I hope the LRX expands a little better because so far that's what my Nula likes.
I don't shoot magnums anymore, and I think that's where the Barnes bullets shine. I was however shooting a 300wsn the day I lost my buck.
I'm going to experiment with a few different bullets this winter and see if I can find one both me and my gun like!
PS, try pushing those Barnes with some 7828ssc in that 7mag, should give you some good speed and accuracy.
