    Federal blue boxes. 150s. Can't say exactly how accurate but what I shoot is bang and drop dead. Works for me

    But a barrel is like a woman, some can be fussy on what you feed them with.

    How do you find the ballistics of them? Near the packet advise? Got them zeroed at 200m yet to use them any further though

    Awesome, Chorny both, average for the 150sst is 2995fps and the 165sst at 2830fps. Best kill so far was a Bull tahr at 282m with the 150sst and it was dead before it hit the ground, total poleaxed it. Impressed as well as both rounds POI is nearly the same apart from slight difference in height. All shoot under a inch at 100m and best group so far .442 at 100 yards with the 165sst. cant beat that for factory i recken
