CA Mesa W/ Hornady Outfitter Ammo?

[RadDad]

Does anybody here have any experience shooting the Hornady Outfitter ammo with the new CX bullet out of their CA Mesa? I have a 7mm Rem Mag Mesa and was able to find some outfitter ammo on the shelf locally. I have a hunt coming up requiring lead-free ammo so these may be a good fit.

I’ve found my rifle doesn’t really like the Federal Trophy Cooper so hoping these are better give the price tag… I’ve seen good feedback on the GMX bullets but not much yet on the CX.

If the GMX looked good for you, the CX should only be better.

I never got the chance to shoot the GMX, unfortunately. I’ve heard it was a good shooting round but never had first-hand experience.

Shot some out of my CA Mesa .300WM in 180gr
Didn't shoot groups with it, but shot about the same as barnes TTSX at steel (from what I was able to tell before my scope mount loosened on me)
I'm going to the range tomorrow night to re-zero.
I'll shoot some groups comparing Barnes 180gr vs Outfitter 180gr
I'll come back with news after that
