Just got e-mails from Sierra and MidwayUSA on these new bullets, if you have to have the newest thing out.
I'm a huge fan of Sierra bullets (Nosler also). Most of their bullets I've tried are already "game changers". One in particular, the 6mm 85 grain BTHP is perhaps the best all around bullet ever developed for the 243 Win.
That mushroomed bullet in the video looked pretty promising though. I’m in too, well there goes another 100 bucks!Kinda looks like another “just the tip” thing to me but I’ll give them a try just for kicks
Oh-No, Don’t give the boys over on the main message board new material to work with!Will they change a rabbit into a deer after i shoot it with one of their bullets?
130 will beat the trajectory of the heavies within reasonable hunting distances therefore appealing to the masses instead of a small sliver of shooters. Also fits into the legacy cases and the Grendel better. One bullet to rule them all kinda thing.Yet again no 140gr bullet in 6.5. Why? seems to me like it would make sense to do the 140s over the 130s in the 6.5mm especially if marketing for the hunting crowd.
Like Willie said, new and getting them out fast during the Berger changeover. Looks like Midway’s money was in this deal too, the way they rolled it out together.Weird how they're not listed on Sierra's website at this point in time though.
