I did the same thing with my Hammer order, but Hammers work soooo much better than Barnes in smaller calibers like 22-250, 243, 25-06 and 270. Actually Barnes failure to expand in game animals in my son's 243, and my 25-06 led me to Hammers. Whatever kind of copper they use it works! Hammers...
Try these! I'm shooting Hammers in 6 different rifles now. Poor expansion in Barnes led me to Hammers 4 years ago. They are amazing, deadly, easy to load and accurate.

Nice rifle and excellent shooting!
I'm shooting Hammers in 5 different rifles now plus my sons rifle and all shoot excellent. On game performance is excellent as well, much like a Partition only lead-free.
Good luck on your hunt, can't wait to see your results!
