Seems it likes others, too, and is tough enough for far bigger stuff than I’ve put them into.


I bought a box of this ammo and it has produced the smallest group in my 6.5CM so far. Four shots into 0.4 inch at 100m. My best handloads have been with the same Hornady 129gn bullet sat to the same depth as the Hornady factory ammo.

I've always liked the Hornady flat base Interlocks.
