    That steel match is decent stuff, definitely not just rebranded junk. It's nice not to worry about finding all the brass!

    That ammo shot good in my SL8 as well. I think it is too often shrugged off. The steel case makes folks look the other way.

    Thank you, of course. My apologies for asking a soliciting type question on your forum, was jumping between threads.

    That is interesting. My MV shot the 75gr Superperformance Match ok, but not as well as Nosler Varmageddon 55g. Will report back when I get a chance to try at 200, 300 yes to see how they compare at further distances. So far, Nosler was the best in mine.

    I haven't heard many people reporting good results with the 75gr Superformance Match in any gas guns.
    The Hornady 75gr 223 Steel Match is a different product line, I don't know what's different in it for powders or anything else, and I have yet to shoot it personally.

    I've personally never shot this ammo, and regrettably I've just snubbed it off as steel-cased with a fancy box... but.... I'm curious to give it a shot now...

    Yes, it's a 3 round group.

    Would be nice to see that kind of results with factory Hunting ammo I know I am dreaming but ....
