Hornady Steel Match hollow Point .223

[rivetc78]

Pricing looks good.
One small note, the 75gr is a BTHP.

It's the same bullet hornady uses in their tap ammo, and judging by the groups same load too. This is very good ammo at a very good price. Sako trg owners will really like the 308 168 gr

Anyone in central Sask want to a group buy from Henry??? He's offering a pretty fair deal here.

Could be a winner for SU16 yote hunters.

Shot a box of 75 gr. from my AR today. Shot very well. It was very clean.
I am not the best shot, but I did do a 10 round 1.5" group at 100M. (scope w/rest)

Wish I could stretch it out further than 100M.

 

[JoeOnePack]

I would probably be in for at least 1000 rounds. What would the time line on this be?

 

[JoeOnePack]

Is there anyone in the GTA area want to get in on a group buy for this stuff? I am willing to pick up between 1-2k depending on how many people get in.

PM me!


P.S. Is this really the same bullet used in the 75gr TAP ammo?

 

[Richard Cranium]

Wonder what shipping would be to the GTA......

 

[TangoKilo]

Anyone know a place in southern Alberta where I can try a couple boxes before I commit to thousands of rounds??

 

[Grizzlypeg]

I'd like to try both offerings in my Ar-15. I hope someone local begins carrying it.

Yes. Hornady only makes one 75gr. Boat Tail Hollow Point. Stats on their website are exactly the same. TAP is marketed to L.E.

The other Tap rounds can use A-Max bullets

Hornady Steel Match features the same bullets and powders as traditional Hornady ammunition, but features a polymer-coated steel casing instead of brass. The end result is the same reliability and performance from normal brass-cased ammunition at a fraction of the price, due to the lower material cost.

Hornady Steel Match ammo is designed to be used in high-volume competitions, when shooters often aren't permitted to pick up their brass as they go through the stages. Instead of leaving all that money on the ground, shooters have the peace of mind that their casings aren't the most important part of the match, their scores are.

Well I just did a bunch of research and you are correct... For the most part.

The TAP ammo uses what they call a T2 bullet that has a cannalure. The match ammo uses the T1 bullet, which is without a cannalure. It is the same bullet Hornady sells as a reloading component. Supposedly you cannot get the TAP bullet to reload, but isn't really much of a difference.

P.S. So who from the GTA area wants to get in on a bulk purchase!!! PM and we will plan this up!!!

Picked up a few boxes from Jo Brook in Brandon. 75 grainers. Can't wait to try it out in my AR.

Hi,

Four boxes, plus taxes, came to $96.00. I think they are $23.99 a box, but he gave me 10 percent off for buying four.

Any updates on bulk availability in the GTA?
