sierra are PRODUCTION bullets. built for the masses
my opinion is that bergers are better
true custom bullets are even better
having said that i just had a 308 win reamer made for the 175 tmk at 2.82 oal
mag length hoping they shot well as a target round, but not a competition gun.
and i shoot 220 smk in a 300 win mag mk248 mod1 clone chamber . again a target but not comp. i shoot berger 230 in a mk248mod me clone in steel matches

I wouldn’t think so but who knows Sierra makes really good mass produced bullets

I have no complaints about my DTACs, and they're made by Sierra.

Please define a 'production bullet'.

It's not some lathe turned solid or something hand made. Overall, it may be a distinction without a difference. It's made by Sierra, in large quantities, for a 3rd party.

I have won my share of matches with 107 match kings and back in the day there weren’t many custom bullets available so the mk was very popular and shot well but we have so many custom bullets out there now and with all the money we spend to be competitive I don’t think skimping on bullets would be the way to go. When Walt was alive Berger was very competitive, I think if I get to compete this year I’ll finish off my old lots of Berger’s then move in to vapor trails, hammers or something similar

I do well with 107s but I sort them into tight tolerances. Most of the guys I beat are shooting customs. Most of the matches I shoot top out at 500 yards. I am a believer he who reads flags correctly most often wins.

My only complaint about DTAC’s would be, - where are the DTACs.

if you do not have them ordered now it is unlikely you will get them this year
i practiced with some 107s the new small tip, but shot barts for my national win

BUT he asked about TIPPED MK'S

THE bullet is made under contract to a standard than TRUE CUSTOM bullets....say a a br bullet vs a prs bullet pretty plain and simple

What is the standard, or are you just guessing?

The DTAC predates PRS by a few years.

I had given up. Just after I had stopped checking a while back. DTACs about to be ordered. Thanks!

 

[std7mag]

I've taken 2nd & two 3rd place with TMK at local bench rest matches in factory class.

My limiting factor is the loose screw behind the trigger.

Yes I’m aware what he asked , just telling him I have won matches with mk’s back in the day

well ask g david tubb's( that is the dt in the name)
he does not shoot br
he does not build br bullets
he is a large target shooter, high power and king of two miles.
not a guess
