The secant-ogive portion is presented as wind-efficient, yet actual results will depend on the specific rifle and load setup.
This is a target bullet design, so it is best suited to precision shooting applications rather than general-purpose use.
The product is sold in a 100-count box, which may be more than needed for shooters testing only a few loads.
