Thanks, Jeff.
You must be one of the first to get hold of these components.
Great to have Hornady making such a useful bullet. thumb

I've been too busy with piracy on select threads.
Can't keep up with all the details. Wink

I'll let you guys know how it goes, and, of course, publish the results.

my previous results with them have been than they feed very well in my rifles.. the flat nose is small enough to keep feeding like an RN

And thanks to Jeff's headsup, I have a couple of boxes of the Hornady .510/570-grain softs on the way.
The solids were already sold out.

both at 1.265" ave. length, with middle of cannelure about .78 or so. the softs tended to be more varied, averaging 1.267 or so, from 1.263 to 1.270 .. mostly due to the "curl" of lead on the nose .. measured to the side, pretty consistent ..

I expect them to work as designed, and hit same POI

Ron,
I can send you 15 or 20 for testing, solids, if you like
