    @R93 did you have the Labradar hooked up? Be interested if they were quicker out of the tube than the Hornady's of same load.

    No. I shot a grain under what my interlock load was just to see if they were going to shoot. After this weekend I will speed them up and use the radar.

    If I get the same speed as the interlock which is tame, I will load up a few and use them on a few animals before changing completely.
    1st impressions are really good tho.

    Quite impressed with these projectiles so far. I am half a grain less than my interlock load getting 2950fps over the radar with Norma brass (warm day and I didnt shoot an interlock to compare). ES was 14fps. Did manage to shoot one of the better 5rnd 200 yrd groups I have for a while. Sort of surprising considering the mirage. Just need to get a stash and do some hunting and see how they go.
