    These Sierra 85gr HPBT are a stubby nosed little bullet, just like the 75gr HP, they lend themselves well to short mags and OAL.
    Ta. So they will fit into pretty much any .223 mag then (Tikka is 2.3"/58.42mm).
    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.
