  • In the weeds

    My first time listening to this podcast. My first time reviewing any podcast.

    It was like shooting a lead ball from a smooth bore. It is going somewhere just not sure where. Very hard to follow.

    I hunt with hand loaded Barnes bullets. Many Cape Buffalo with the 300 TSX.

  • Great Podcast

    The Barnes guys are great to listen to. They provide a lot of detailed information about the Barnes offerings and are obviously very knowledgeable. I wish they would be more consistent with a weekly podcast instead of how it has been. Their YouTube videos were great as well but it seems their channel was taken down for some reason. Keep up the great work!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Does Muzzle Velocity Matter? Bullet Expansion & Function Windows Explained - #BallisticsBriefs
Q: So today, I've got Mitchell Cookson with me, and I'm going to ask him why should people be more worried about what their impact velocity is to understand the function windows of those bullets?
The guest emphasizes that muzzle velocity is less important than the impact velocity your bullet experiences at the actual range of your shot. He explains that you must run trajectory data using true velocities for the specific rifle and load, because the same muzzle velocity can translate into different impact velocities depending on barrel length, distance, and the chosen bullet type. He also notes Barnes tailors bullets to velocity windows (e.g., TSX, TTSX, LRX) and that selection should be driven by the range you shoot most often and the specific hunting scenario.
Why Copper Bullets Beat Lead—No BS, Just Facts #BallisticsBriefs
Q: Why copper over lead?
Copper offers consistency, stronger weight retention, deeper penetration, and reliable expansion across calibers, which translates to predictable terminal performance and the ability to hunt large game or use subcaliber options with confidence.
Episode 32 - A Raw Conversation with our CEO
Q: What is your day-to-day as a CEO like?
A mix of travel, customer visits, high-level planning, and frequent team alignment; the goal is to stay connected to customers and markets while steering the company toward thoughtful product development and brand alignment.
Bonus Episode | Safari Night at Gordy & Son's Podcast
Q: If you were going to go on your first Safari tomorrow, what cartridge and gun would you pick?
I'd choose a classic 375 H&H with a Rigby Big Game bolt gun, paired with a Swarovski 1.7-13 scope, and I'd shoot 300 grain TSX for dependable performance.
Episode 8 - Planning for your First Elk hunt!
Q: What if I struggle to find the animal in my scope during the hunt?
Stay calm and communicate with your spotter, taking your time to find the animal and ensuring a clean shot when ready.
