If you have found bullets other than RN working well in your 14/141, that is great!
Good hunting to you all.


I think that their advocacy for round nose bullets had to do with potential COAL problems when cycling ammunition through the magazine.

I don't know that a pointed bullet of weight equal to a comparable round nose bullet would have any practical advantage at typical .35 REM velocities and within the typical performance parameters.
