1961 Barnes Bullet Catalog
1961 Barnes Custom Made Bullet and Precision Built Big Game Rifles catalog,6" x 9" with 12 pages. CONTENT: The first 3 pages feature the B-J Express line of Big Game cartridges which has 8 "Barnes-Johnston"(not Johnson)calibers listed with the cartridge pictured with technical data.The next page has 4 catridges based on the 30-06 case for which Barnes offers rifles and rechambering services.The next 2 pages have images of 67 Barnes bullets with weight and caliber listed.Next is a page picturing 26 fired bullets with caliber and weight listed along with the recipient(Deer,Elk,dry oak,Cape Buffalo).That is followed by a page with the Barnes Supreme Line,8 cartridges based on the .375 H&H case.The last 2 pages list 68 bullets with prices and 3 special order bullets listed without the price.The back cover has a chart "Recommended Powder Charges For Barnes Bullets" with 29 calibers listed with more than 1 bullet weight listed for many.The cover states "And Precision Built Big Game Rifles" which means Barnes offers to rechamber an existing gun in a B-J Express or other caliber.Barnes also offers to build the gun with F.N actions,Bishop stocks or custom stocks,slings(Boyt with Jaeger Q.D. swivels),sights & scopes(any chosen-mounted free).Prices are listed for all items and all work performed.I find it interesting that any info on early Barnes bullets,B-J Express in particular,is virtually non-existant.Excellent condition with a date stamped on the cover top right,stain at the bottom of the front cover and "H.D." written on the cover
