I seem to recall that there is something special about COAL for mono bullets. COAL can make a big difference and your lack of specifying this item is a concern.
I went to the Barnes site and looked up the COAL they use for this bullet.
Quickload say the Barnes Varget data for the 130 TTSX is hot, 62,700 psi (30-06 SAAMI max is 60,000 psi). Note that most guns sold in 30-06 are also sold in 270 Win. The 270 Win is rated for 65,000 psi.
