.35 cents a piece from Speer. I haven’t seen these in stock in a while and thought someone might be needing some great HD ammo

Thanks for the heads up.

Will these work in a 1/14 twist?

Next to the Federal TBBC I think these are the best 223 deer bullet out there and that is a good price.

1/14 not sure. Get the bullet length and punch it into a green hill calculator, but remember that is just a guide. I have had some guns shoot bullets pretty well that per this formula they should not have.

1/14 is pretty slow. Might work in a 22-250 1/14 just fine but not a .223 is my guess. I have zero math to back that guess up though.

These, TBBC, and nosler BSB are all top notch I think. The nosler scan be harder to get accuracy out of, but they all perform about the same

Pushing them faster @ 22-250 velocities is not the answer! Unless you like tumblers.

They work fine in my 1:8 twisted Rugers. Both .223 & .22-250 - Wishing that the 75gr bullets were available.

Turns out midway has them for $6 cheaper a box, but a limit of 2. So if you’re already buying from midway and paying for shipping that might be a good way to get a few
