    Bullet profile, bearing surface & few other things. Best visit the website for in detail differences.
    I bought Hunters to suit my mag length, they are more like your conventional flat based profile verse VLD design.

    Absolutes go faster

    Shot these groups this morning at 200m to check "shooter excuses" both well sub MOA so not the rifles fault



    Left target first shot high from cleaning, old batch of bullets, right target new batch, 3919fps average for all shots according to the Garmin which is a complete game changer by the way

    Turn it on, throw it on the table, point it towards the target & party on, never missed a shot out of 50 I fired, even with others banging away....any one want a Labradar ??

    Very happy with those groups using the thermal on 8 power & bipod, no doubt a decent scope & time taken they would be smaller but this is how it is used hunting

    Ive been thinking along the lines of a solid copper projectile of around 110gr for my 270 as a point and shoot projectile. You guys with experience with these projectiles, what would you recommend? I idly wondered if the 116 would offer enough difference between a standard 130gr lead cored projectile?

    117grn HH .270wsm. 325 yds exit. 3450 fps with 20" barrel. This is very typical.

    I would run the 116 AH or the 122 HHT, the 116 will be smoking along compared to the 130 C&C

    Tahr is loading me some, I’ve shot 1/2 a dozen deer with them so far. I’m very impressed. A big red stag last light didn’t go far at all.
