140 gr hornady match hpbt any good?

Very good bullet. The new AMP jackets and the process in which they are made is very precise and also leave the tips more uniform. Try them.
 
They shoot pretty well from my 260s, and as mentioned the tips appear to be pointed.

Based on some earlier reports on the Hide by folks, I used the Litz BC of a 139gr Scenar (0.557 G1/0.285 G7) and it provided a first-round hit @ 900yd on a 10" plate.

Best for me, they're available locally and $5/box cheaper than the 140 A-Max.
 
These bullets consistently out performed Sierra's best in my 260, that's with four different powders, three types of brass, and two different altitudes. I thought some of the groups may have been luck, but confirmed them both in Colorado and California. Best part, they are already pointed and aren't very sensitive to depth whether seated into the lands or jumped.
