    308 155gr TMK

    Hey guys picked up a few boxes of these ages a go to have a play with. Not a lot of info on them but seems they perform similar to the eld-m and perform well up close and far out which is what I'm after.

    Anybody else given them a go? Thoughts?

    If they perform as well as the Berger 155gr they will be fantastic.

    Shot plenty of goats with them and yeah - very similar to an ELD-M's terminal performance.

    They were finicky to get them to shoot though. Sierra are very aggressive with the ogives on their 30cal TMK's.

    Yes you are correct, very similar to an ELDM. A match hollowpoint with plastic tip. I mainly shoot either the Hornady ELDM or TMK in any calibre. I have a preference to a TMK as I reckon Seirra make a slighter better bullet, but my wallet likes the Hornady, depending what's available.

    All good. Sounds like if I can get them to shoot they'll do the business. Wish this rain would piss off so I can get to the range.
