When the 110 SMK came out in 2017 I got several boxes of the first batch. They shot great and had great BC. I bought more in 2018 and they shot like utter garbage. Accuracy went from .5 MOA to 1.5 MOA. When I measured the bullets, base to ogive had changed by over .020" I was never able to get that lot to shoot even by varying loads and seat depth. I also saw I wasn't the only person that had issues with lot to lot consistency so I gave up and switched to bergers.

Now I'm looking to try them again, but wondering if sierra has improved their consistency? Has anyone purchased recent lots and are able to get them to shoot?

Thanks.
