Double tap for rifle

[Teaman1]

Anyone ever try doubletap ammo in a rifle? Sure it will be fine, just wondering if there are any people with (good or bad) experience with it

I've used it in my .300 WSM for quite some time now with no complaints.

Cool. Doesn’t really matter, but have you ever chronographed them? I’m probably going to buy their 200 grain accubonds for my 325 wsm

My results were poor,

I once purchased two boxes of double tap ammo for my .358 Win. I had just had the chamber recut by my gun smith to spec. The factory Winchester loads work just fine. However, I found that the D.T. rounds in both loads were too long. The double tap ammo: 1 box of 225 Accubond and 1 box of 200 gr. Barns tripple shock X. I became concerned that high pressures would be an issue so I choose not to use them. I also picked up some double tap 200 accubond loads for my Kimber .325 WSM. They had no issues with length, but were not any better flyers than the Winchester product. The only difference seams to be they are not moly coated. Your results may vary, Wish you luck if you choose to use this product.

2 boxes of 160 gr NPs from DT through my Stevens 200/270win. Better accuracy than other factory loads, have not chronoed.

How could something called "double tap" NOT be good ?? (same goes for anything camouflaged, or that has "tactical", "operator","mil-spec", "SEAL", "recon","delta","SWAT", etc in the name.

Would prefer “single tap” for a hunting round haha

Yes, I chrono’d them and they were right on with their specs.

Good to hear. Going to order a couple boxes and try them
