    Is ASYM the only choice for factory 70gr TSX?

    I'm looking at picking up some factory loaded ammo with the 70gr Barnes TSX. SSA has been out of stock forever and the only other I can find available is ASYM. I would like to try these rounds out in my 1/7 Stag Model 3 plus package rifle.

    AFAIK SSA was the only other manufacturer loading them and since they were bought buy Nosler(thanks for the fix)I have not seen them on their website. ASYM makes some high quality ammo. The only other option I know of is to take a look at Black hills 62g 556 TSX offering.

    I did find some Black Hills 62TSX 5.56 loads but I'm looking for the 70 TSX. ASYM is sold at Galati for a fair price last I checked in stock.

    I stand corrected, for what its worth Ted Nugent has them as well. http://tednugentammo.com/tnshop/prod...products_id/62
    No offense to Ted but I would not hesitate to go with the ASYM.

    Hornady produces a very similar projectile called the GMX. I do not know if it is used in factory loads or not but you may want to include it in your search.

    Great minds think alike. I've been looking for the exact same thing and as far as I've seen ASYM is the only one currently instock at online retailers. Also, I believe that Nosler was the company that snapped up Silver State Armory, not Hornady. http://www.ammoland.com/2013/06/nosl...#axzz38vJQRvNm

    SouthwestAmmo has some too - that said, for the price ASYM is quite competitive, though their 10x packs are out of stock.

    SSA was bought by Nosler and the 70 gr TSX can still be found at Cabelas.

    Academy in my neck of the woods stocks the Ted Nugent stuff. Have no clue about how good it is or who loads it.

    I too wish more loads with the 70 TSX were available.
