Sierra has their act together on the game changers in the 6.5 130g and 7mm 165g,

I’m not saying they were bad choices. I just hope they come out with more options soon.

I just read a review where they where tested in 3 different calibers and all 3 shed their cores. I'm a big Sierra fan but I don't like that idea.

They’re accurate, the BC seems legit, and the 90 grainer .243 bullet absolutely hammered an antelope buck at 400 last fall. It obviously didn’t shed its core.... but I did find a few pieces of the green plastic tip in the exit wound.
You better pray to the God of Skinny Punks that this wind doesn't pick up......

I didn’t hear anything about the tip on the TGK being heat resistant though. I may have missed it though
Ride well, shoot straight, and speak the truth.
