Thanks

Midway has a sale on 77 grain, tipped, match bullets that might be Sierra TMKs.

The reviews are AWFUL but it might be disinformation from a buyer who is stocking up and does not want others to jump in ahead of him. I have 100 coming and can let you know how bad they look and the color of their plastic tips.

Friend of mine bought a couple hundred from Midway years back trying to save a buck. He called me complaining about they wouldn't group. An inspection revealed all of them had a slight bend to them. Told him to quit being a cheepaskate and buy good bullets.

I bought a K of 224, 55gr soft point seconds from midway several moths ago.

This is what I got. Still working on cleaning them up.

I've got a lot of them like that from the Sierra outlet... just use your thumb to pop the nib and ring off the bullet... easy peazy.

I wonder if wet tumbling with SS pins would clean those tips up without damaging the rest of the tip too much?

That’s what I’m doing, but it takes a bit of time.

Came across these "Scratch and Dent" guys online a while ago. Don't know anything about them but they seem to concentrate on Hornady bullets:

Yeah, a couple years ago I purchase a couple hundred that looked exactly like that when they were delivered in January. Darnedest thing, they looked perfectly normal when I loaded them up in July.

That still has me scratching my head....

SPS and Rocky Mountain are probably the best source for seconds.

My experience as well. Not a big deal and they shot well.

I received 800 22 cal seconds from Midway last week in three varieties, all 70 gr or better. But I have not inspected the contents of the boxes yet.
