Nosler is making the 110 AB this month. They have been non existent for 2 years. The Hornady 120 SST works well also. Ive been shooting my AR's in 6.8 alot 4 deer and a hog so far over the last 3 years Last edited by TLB2; 08/07/16.

If someone wants them shoot me a PM, they will be reasonable. Think I'll probably work with a Grendel next. "...the designer of the .270 Ingwe cartridge!..."
