Just know that the 123 SSTs only Interlock is in the cannelure. The jacket is thin, straight, untapered. Now Hornady does know how to make tough bullets in this style so the proof is in the shooting but I wouldn't describe this 123 as being "tough".

Because of the high BCs either one would make great practice bullets for the 129 ABLR. And at over a hundred yards if you have time to drop one in the chamber you can save a few pennies with one. The SST expands and penetrates very well at Grendel speeds, the A-MAX will work slower still.

I have a box of the 123 SSTs, they are cheap. I think I'll load some at 2700ish and see how they do. Heck I might even use em all up that way.


The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution.
