Imperial 308 Sabre Tips

[Gerald]

I have some of these and some have white plastic tips and some have black plastic tips. Does the colour of the tip indicate the weight of the bullet?

Not sure if they did that back then
You could wieght the whole bullet or pull a couple

Clear or white is 180 grain, black is 150 grain.

Thankyou Cat. That is exactly what I was looking for. Could you tell me the difference in the weights of the yellow and the blue tips of the 30-30. I have some of them also. I imagine one is 150gr and one is 170gr but I don’t know which is which.
