Considerations & Trade-offs
- Flat base design is described as most applicable to mid-range use, so it may not be the right choice if your loading plan is centered on longer distances where a boat tail is preferred.
- These are match-grade target bullets, so they are purpose-built for precision shooting rather than general-purpose hunting use.
- The 1,000-count box is suited to high-volume target work, but it is a larger upfront purchase if you only need a small quantity for load development.
