Went in to buy a few more Sierra Match bullets and walked out with some A-tips. I've read a lot of good things about em and they are cheaper so wth give em a shot. Took out 22 for demensions and weight, out of the batch there was only 0.2 gn difference. 168.0 - 168.2 pretty impressive. The length wasn't so close around 0.006 I believe because of the plastic tip. Made up a 50 round batch to test this weekend, we'll see if the match or out perform the Sierras.

Aren’t the tips aluminum? I figured they would be more consistent on length. I’m curious how you like them. Let me know.

These aren't the new Aluminum tipped ones. Those damn things are $90 for a hundred.
