    I think these 30 cal bullets are intended for magnum cartridges such as 300 PRC, 300 Win Mag, and 300 Norma Mag etc. Don't see many people buying these to run them in a 308. Most guys have left the 308 behind in competition and gone to the 6.5mm and 6mm cartridges.

    i'm sorry but long range and hunting shouldn't be used in the same sentence.

    As mentioned, these heavy projectiles are intended for the magnum and up 30 cal rounds. Although, somehow making the 230gr work as a subsonic 308 would be fun.

    I don't think your average shooter is the target market for these. They'll be selling to guys running custom barrels, so it's not really an issue.

    Then don’t do it. Long range to some guys is 300 yards.

    Obviously we have not used these yet however I am very excited to see these in action. Hornady ,of all the bullet/ammunition companies ,has impreseed me the most. Having spent time at the Hornady factory and with Jason Hornady ,I have always sensed the passion and commitment of a family owned and operated company and most often choose their products personally as I feel more comfortable with them than most other bullet/ammunition companies that I feel have just conformed to the large industrial corporations that are dominating the gun industry today. When you see their team members hand inspecting certain style of sharp angle shoulder calibers (like 22-250) it gives you faith in what modern manufacturing can produce. Phil.

    Any idea of when these will be available for sale in Canada, and who is set to carry them?
