Barnes Bullets

Featured Hunts

Jim, Tana & Sam Brinkman

 

We traveled to Namibia to hunt plains game with Eden Safaris. Our PH was Jamey Traut. We shot three eland, three kudu, two wildebeest, a zebra, a giraffe, a hartebeest, an impala and three gemsbok. Most were one-shot kills and many animals were flattened like a pancake. Our friends shot an eland using another popular brand of bullets. After taking three shots to finish a kill, he borrowed some of my Triple-Shocks to finish his safari.

Our PH was impressed with the Triple-Shock’s penetration on heavy-bodied animals. We weighed the recovered bullets on a scale, and all were within one grain of their original weight.

The three of us used custom Ed Brown .300 Winchester Magnum rifles shooting Federal ammo loaded with 165-grain Triple-Shock bullets.

Thanks for being a part of our very successful hunt.

I shot this bear on Russia’s Kamchaka Peninsula using a .30-378 Weatherby firing 200-grain Barnes Triple-Shock flat-base bullets. The range was 75 yards. The bullet I recovered weighed 192.5 grains. The bullets expanded perfectly and did a great job.
