Fed Premium Ammo with Barnes TSX
For the past couple of years a busy work schedule has kept me away from the loading bench, so I have been shooting factoy ammo mostly. I have been very pleased with Fed Premium ammo in several of my rifles and love the performance of the Barnes TSX bullets on game.

I have a M70 (from the SC plant) in 375 H&H and a Kimber 84L in 30-06 that I have not been able to shoot very much. I put 3 boxes of ammo through both of them today. Neither would shoot the Fed Premium with the TSX bullet very well. The best I could get was 2 1/2" to 3" groups at 100M. That is with 3 or 5 shot groups.

However, they both shot Fed classic ammo great! 3 shots touching with 2 more opening up the groups to around 1". The Kimber loved Remington Core-Lok ammo also. I was using 300gr bullets in the 375 and 180gr in the 30-06. First time one (two) of my rifles didn't like the Fed Premium ammo.
