I just bought a 2nd case of 600, I was so impressed with the first ones that I fired

If they had small primer pockets I'd be more down for some s&b. But totally worth if you have large primers stocked or if youre looking to lose some brass

I had no problem making predictable hits with this ammo out to 789yds with my Grendels.

It shot really well at 100yds from the LaRue 18” Stealth 2.0 Grendel.

Brass looks new after ejection, at least from my blasters. I tune and polish all the surfaces that cartridges touch of course.
