I'm having a hard time getting my hands on the new edition of the Barnes reloading manual. I'm looking for the load data for a 140 gr TSX (non-tipped) with either H4831 or RL19. Anybody have some info?

:?: BTW, when can we expect a .277 E-tip to appease the granola-eating, tree-hugging condor freaks here in CA?
