    We shot these out to 900 yards today. I got to fire Pappabear's Centurion Arms barrelled SPR, and was slapping the 900 steal several times in a row. They'll get there with some consistency.

    I actually show both 23.4 gr with a velocity of 2824, and 24.3 grains with a velocity of 2945.

    Wolf SRM? I received some of these 62gr BTHPs today. I have quite a few standard Tula small rifle primers, so it'll be interesting to see how much pressure they'll handle.

    No WOLF primers. I'm just loading these with WSRs or whatever is layin around. These bullets frag grape fruit nicely, as a side note. I didn't think they'd blow grape fruit up like Gamekings, but they are right there with them.

    We were giving these a workout again last week. Mark did a 9 shot group that held moa. You can get lucky on a 5 round group. Not a 9. But they have been very consistent at moa. Then the 77 grain Noslers ran 1/2 inch. Rem 700 5R.
    Mark took a pic if he will quit being lazy and post something.

    OP & friend... I have faith and took the 1,500 count plunge. Thanks for the lead on what should be a super plinker.

    Here's a pic of the two groups shot on Sunday. Top left 9 are the 62gr Hornady HPBT, and the bottom left 5 are the house load 77 gr SMK.
