Fired my first 4 rounds with these sst's out of my 16" barrel,with no pressure signs. This round had me concerned since the bullets are seated a little deep to get the 2.300 oal. I'm using RL7 @ 29.0gn to start since all my other loads are in the mid 29's. I'll get some speeds later once I hit the accuracy node. I'm using cci 41 primers as usual also. This bullet also is hitting a lot higher on the target then the nosler 125 b/t's. Had to bring it down a good 6 inches. So far so good though. I wanted to add the jump to lands is .080.

I may have to revisit this bullet. I had 'meh' accuracy results with it but I might play around with seating depths after seeing your results. I've had excellent terminal performance with this bullet in 300BLK on whitetail and would expect the same in AM30.

Nice to know to know it works well on deer. Ive heard mixed results but i figured there is a big fudge factor. I got 400 of these to punch out. Found it to be very simple work up. Gonna shoot it through a chrono this weekend

Gonna give em one of these sst's and see how they like it lol 2 miles from our property there are notices posted warning of feral hogs yet I've never had one on cam or seen one around. These critters are definitely on my hit list, Looks like I may have to venture a bit to find them!
