    Just picked up 500 to try since I can't find and don't know when the 109 hybrids will be back in stock.

    The Berger calculator shows the 108s stabilizing better in a 1:7.5 twist at 2900fps.

    Wondering who has tried these out in a 6GT chamber and possibly some load data.
     
    It's what I run. Love them. 34.5 RL15.5 at .040 off lands gets me 2970 out of a 26" Bartlien gain twist 8.25 to 7. Posted stuff on them a few times now. Great replacement for 109s.

    We just picked up about 16,000 of them for our ammo we’ll be selling.

    Very consistent bullet and looking forward to getting them out to customers.
    That's very good to hear. Thanks for the vote of confidence.

    I might go grab another 500-1500. But I'm still in the process of getting my barrel chambered and spun up and have no chance to even test yet.
