This is there 129 grain flat base spire point. My CZ527'sin 6.5 grendel love them. Was honestly surprised to see this bullet out perform the 125 grain Nosler Partition in terms of expansion and weight retention at blistering Grendel speeds only achievable w Leverevolutin propellant. Expect this modest bullet would do well from a 6.5 Creed or 260 Rem and more. love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control & Proverbs 21:19

Hornady SST worked for me too.

Of all my rifles I've killed anything with, I like the 140 Accubond out of my .264 and I like the 150 Partition out of my .280 the most, but I have rifles tucked away that have yet to be blooded. I was going to put a sweet little Model Seven custom in 6mm Rem slinging 95-grain Partitions to work this fall, but I lost my lease and had to have everything off the property one week before deer opener. Maybe next year...but damn, I ain't getting any younger. Don't be the darkness. America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.
