Update. So I emailed Barnes and the rep responded they will mail me a new box once I provide the lot number. Not sure if they will send me one of each, but being that I live in California, they said it has to go to my FFL. Still awaiting shipping confirmation. Will update if and when I do get it, if so, their customer service will be top notch in my book. Forward to tonight, I decided to check my other .277 LRX projectiles since it’s from the same lot, I have 4 remaining unopened boxes of the same lot. I open one box, laid them out, sure enough, one of them has the same issue. Hmmm, decided to open the third box…yup, same thing. The one with the marker is the first one that I noticed and pulled from a loaded round. All three appear to have the same measurement in the groove cuts compared to the others. Just weird that there are 1 in each box only though. If Barnes does send me a box, that’ll be great. But SMH, 3 for 3 with 2 boxes unopened. What are my chances…good thing I’m heading to Reno, NV for spring break. Hopefully I come up!
. Anyone from Reno that can recommend some good pew pew shops to check out. I want to experience what freedom feels like…Thanks.
