"Solid round. Comprable to the Noslers I've been shooting. Straight out of the box putting everything under a dime at 200yds. Much more affordable than the Nosler 160gr and has been lethal in the field. My go to for my Kimber hands down"
"Great value range ammo from Hornady, shipped fast from Target Sports."
"Best of the best here. Put two PA whitetails on the table this past season. 2 thumbs up."
"Excellent performance, sub MOA, the only factory loaded ammo that has performed for my build so far."
