Very impressed with the Ammo, was able to shoot at 750 & 1100 with great success.

It grouped decent for me, speed from my 25" Criterion barrel was a little slow (2725fps) but still slightly faster than American Gunner (2715). The AG ammo did group better overall, but not by much.

I was Curious if they used the same hornady bullets?

 

[JMGlasgow]

They do look the same.

Was your es and sd decent I didn’t get a chance to chrono it yet, I just went out and shot it. Once I found out my elevation and wind hold it was very consistent

It’s pretty good ammo especially for the price. I’ve shot 4 cases of it and it’s been damn good in my experience. They use a 140 smk bullet.

 

[JMGlasgow]

I only shot 5 over the Magnetospeed to get a starting velocity. SD's were single digit.

Anybody know what brass they use? I don’t think sig makes their own brass do they?

I tried that line of ammo in 223 and it shot well out of my 9 twist. Then again though, absolutely everything has shot really well in that rifle...

I did not find the article to say what brass they use...

 

[JMGlasgow]

It said they make their brass in house.

If you have a rail on the side you can slap my magnetospeed on it.
I’m curious how it does compared to observed results.
