[Dennis]

Anyone have information on these bullets? I have never heard of them!

I found some pictures. Hopefully the link will work.

Yes, I have seen the pictures.

I am just wondering what's the rebated boattail advantage is over the standard boat tail bullets?

I ran across a few post where they were more accurate than the standard boattails! Very little info so far.

There were some interesting discussions about rebated boat tail bullets on the benchrest central forum just a few weeks ago.

You ever pulled a .22lr bullet. Most of them are rebated boat tails also.

Here is the standard Rebated Boattail, do you need a special seating die for this bullet?
