Thread: Is anyone using the Hornady A Tip match projectiles for hunting?

I loaded 6 with Retumbo and standard primers last night, just on mag length 2.96 coal.
2 @ 58.5
2 @ 59
2 @ 59.5

They went
2942
2967
2996 this was the tightest group .

Will load another 10 for the weekend @ 59.5 and get them into something .

Yeah they were a great price and should theoretically be flattest shooting 6.5 projectiles .

The 230gr Atips seem to work well on a goat today at 795meters.
First long range kill with it

I was supposed to be out last weekend but it didn’t line up . Great weather here today and hopefully for the weekend. Loaded up 25 and will go smack a couple of long range rocks to confirm trajectory and previous speed then a couple of goats followed hopefully by a sika or red .
Large rifle primers
59.5 Retumbo
76mm coal , just fit in the mag
2996 fps
