    Default Barnes XLC bullets?

    Anyone have any experience load the Barnes XLC bullets?
    These are the ones with the blue coating on them.
    Going to load some 168 grainers up for my 30-06.
    Thanks.

    the best way is to use the loads for the 168 matchbullet starting loads or even 10 percent lowerand work up

    Yes, but they list like 12 different powders.
    Which powder should I start with?
    Just checking to see if someone loaded for these XLC bullets and can tell me what was their preferred powder.
    Thanks.
