Barnes Triple-Shock X-Bullets 45-70 Caliber 250 Grain FN HP

[Rifle man]

Has any one had experience with these bullets on boars and deer handloaded for a 1895 SBL Marlin?

I have had the same exact question but in regards to the 300gr version. Not to hijack your thread, but there seems to be a lack of loading data for these bullets. Id like to see some more normal powder (IMR) data with these bullets. I'm concerned because of the long length of the bullet. I am shooting mine out of the same gun and was looking for a deer load myself.

I have successfully taken deer with 350 grain Hornady FN SP Loaded With 53.4 grains of ADI 2207 at 2200 Fps out of the marlin verry successful load.
