Anybody shooting the Barnes .30 212 LRX?

Hello!

I'm new to reloading. Do you mind explaining how and why hybrids are immune to seating depth? I think I may be wasting my time and powder. Thanks!

From Berger;
A Tangent Ogive (like our standard BTs) is less sensitive to seating depth but has more drag and a lower BC than a Secant Ogive of the same length. A Secant Ogive (like our standard VLDS) has a higher BC and lower drag than a traditional Tangent Ogive but can be quite sensitive to seating depth.
A hybrid takes the best of both.

Any more experience with the 212 lrx?

I am seriously considering building a 300 wsm on a long action specifically for this bullet.

Anyone still playing with these bullets? I just started shooting them out of a 300 NMI. So far I am impressed especially while fire forming.
