    Seriously, while I know they're accurate and all that jazz I have had more issues with them in faster cartridges than a non mag 6.5 and 7mm on thar than anything else. I hear they improved them but never run across the new ones. SST is another I hate.

    @R93 they are the white tipped ones. I bought them in the US about 4 years ago, I also have some Nosler 140 gr partitions that I haven't worked up a load for yet.
    What are you using?
