Barns Reloading Data Needed

Does anybody have a Barnes Reloading Data Manual?
Need reloading data for the 7 mm RM with Barnes 150 grain X Bullet. I am actually using the TSX bullet (not the XLC).
Most likely use IMR 4350, IMR 4831 or H1000
Thanks in advance

Aim, I have the 30.06 Barnes TSX info direct from Barnes so cannot help you there, but Just give their tech svc. a call and they will email all the 7 mm Rem info you can handle.

From Barnes:

7mm Remington Magnum
Remington brass, Remington 9 1/2, 24" barrel

150gr XFB or XBT

IMR 4831: Start 60.0 gr Max 64.0 gr 3,004fps
H1000: 68.5 73.5 3,073
IMR 7828: 63.0 68.0 3,021

This data is from Barnes #2.

The TSX operates at higher powder charges due to less pressure from the bullet's relief grooves. Still, I agree Arizona Hunter to contact Barnes directly and get their current TSX data. You might also encourage them to get Barnes #4 out NOW.
