    For those who reload, the Frontier CMJ FMJ flatpoints imported by Rusa run great on goats. Not a long distance accurate bullet but hit hard and I suspect tumble on impact in flesh out of 223. They make nice round holes in paper at 100m. Back in 2017-18 I bought them at around $136/1000. Had to get Bill to bring in the 62gn flatpoints especially as not part of his standard annual order but my Ruger American Ranch II 223 loves them. The 55gn goes great in my BSA CF2 222. Headshots from both to 80-100m, shoulder out to 150-200 if you get them grouping well. They also sell a 30cal target FMJ which I have some of but have yet to use in anger. The .224 rip a decent hole at around 2600fps. I suspect they're still under $200/1000. Cheap plinking. Cheap and reliable out to 100m. Just not sub moa.
    Micky Duck, BSA270 and RV1 like this.
    I know a lot but it seems less every day...
