Anyone run these in a .223? Are they frangible enough? I've only ever run vmaxs on them.

Ive shot thousands of them. They are not as frangible as the V-max but if there are no cattle around you're OK

They're a WHOLE bunch cheaper in bulk...

I shot thousands also.. But mostly out of the big ,22s.. I have used them in the ,223 on deer, antelope and turkey.. They work great..

Strictly a guess, but I'd say on price and their ability..

I'd venture to say the 55 grain Hornady SP has to be one of the lead volume, varmint killing bullets out there.
