Difference between Corbon DPX and Barnes XPB?

[Hizzie]

Other than the Corbon offerings being loaded hotter is there any difference between the two? I was specifically looking at the Barnes Vor-tx 225gr XPB in 44 magnum for a snubby.

Thanks

I want to know the differ between DPX and Thunder Ranch beside the TR being higher priced

OP sometimes Barnes will make a special bullet for other manufactures? or they offer there regular line of bullets.
BTW
I would go with the lower velocity if its in a snub

I'm not sure about that caliber, but the bullet used in the 9mm loads is the same bullet.

Yup...Corbon simply loads the Barnes bullets. For ammo intended for serious defensive use I try to stick with vendors with USG contracts and known QC processes in place.

Last I knew, the TR was repackaged DPX, and media from both was consistent with that.

Wrt the 9mm Barnes bullets, who would those be?

Thanks

Black Hills comes to mind.

Despite being a box of 20, the above link is a really good deal on the BH ammo.

The 9mm BHA loading of the Barnes is superb.

I'd trust ammo from Asym as well, near as I can tell the QC there is rather top notch
