JD,

Re: WS......BIG SUPRISE...round and round here as well.[:'(]

30 bucks sound like a good price for the Barnes MRX prices I have seen are around $40/20.Meaning "good" subjectively of course to the MRX only, they are pricey suckers any way you slice it[&:]. I have had good success with the 140 BT TSX, it shoots sub MOA, great elk/moose choicebut IMO and E deer don't require such a bullet.Now I haven't tried the MRX and have heard some raving reviews but as you mention the price is ...WOW! For deer hard to argue with NBT, my personal favorite - always shoots lights out andnever failed me in the field. That said I am planning on trying some bonded polymers this year for something in hopes of getting an antelope tag. 140 Nosler Accubonds will be my first choice but I also have some 154 Hornady Interbonds sitting on the shelf as well.I have used the 160AB, worked just fine on deer, elk and moose.

FYImake sure you seatBarnes .050" off the lands to start with. I made the mistake of thinking .030" would be better and got pressure spikes early, bumped them to .050" pressure went down and accuracy went up!

Enjoy and best of luck.
