Budget 6mm bullet

Look into these Vapor trails automated VTAC 103 gr , last ones I ordered were about half the cost of Bergers and shot very well.
I looked at the website. It doesn't show a price for any of their bullets. That or I'm just not seeing it.
 
70g Speer TNT is an incredible accurate bullet in a short throat twisted 12-14 twists up to 3850 out of the 243 AI I have shot them in. Due to thin jacket and soft core, they do not tend to do will with high RPM, but I do not know the RPM threshold they will take.

I have shot incredible groups with a 6 XC throated for the 107g Sierra with H4350 and R#17 in a 31",8t with the accuracy node at 3150 using an RAS Tuner/Brake.

Last week I tried shooting the 105g Hornady bthp in my Dasher, had a problem. Throat is .2435, and bullet shank is .2435.

How did they shoot?
 
Are we referring to the Speer # 1206 70 gr bullet. I've never tried them but can get some at $26.99 Can ( $19.99 US ). If it is the ones referred to I will give them a try.
 
I just ordered #700 105 hpbt from brownells. promo code TTB10 for 10% off over 200 bucks. worked out to 30cents each delivered. FYI. here are 3 shots with them i did last week at 1000 yds on 10in plate. the 105's are the light strikes on left. good enuf for me! I dont think would want to use them in matches but for plinking and practice. 0C6F8028-02C8-40BC-A862-FD283800E32E_1_201_a.jpeg
 
The one positive thing to come out of this shortage (the new normal) is that people have started testing things they never would have tested before. And seen the results for THEMSELVES. Instead of just following the buzz and the experts on the Interwebs.

Which appears to have been largely incorrect, interestingly enough.
