Does anyone have any experience with 77 grain Barnes match burners? Lots of info on TMK obviously, and discussion on sierra OTMs and being less than ideal terminally, but I don’t see a lot of people using matchburners.

@Formidilosus I saw you mention the 112s being pretty devastating in 6 creed, any experience with the 77s? Or no need since the TMKs are king?

Cheers

I haven’t used the 77’s on animals, I have the 85gr versions. The 85’s work like a Berger VLD, and I would be pretty confident that the 77’s do as well.

Thank you. I’ll still look to use TMK primarily if hunting. But I’m getting a really solid deal on some 5.56 loaded with those. If nothing else they will provide a great training round
