I just wanted to check out the TMK's since they have a higher BC than the SMK's
I'm going to run a few through the Magnetospeed, get some DOPE and see what they can do at 600yds.

From my notes; 69 gr. TMK, 25.5 to 25.9 gr. Varget, BR-4, WW brass, neck sized only, 3125 fps, groups 1/3 moa and under at 100 yds. Shoot flat as a pancake and very consistent out to 750 yds with my 12BVSS with 8 twist, 26 inch Criterion.

Those ELD -M will be great in your gun. I can only hope the length is compatible with my 1-9 twist.

If the tips are melting it would be good to know

Tips melting.....sounds to me like a bunch of marketing hooey. Isn't the compression wave out in front of the bullet until it slows enough to become transonic?

Anyone else notice Hornaday changed the profile of certain bullets at the same time they changed the tip material? I don't have an optical comparator, but just eyeballing it.

What's that we preach? Change ONE thing at at time and note the results.
