I can't disagree with that. FWIW, Alexander did try to get FMJ ammo made. Unfortunately, the low-cost FMJ from Wolf has been subject to ongoing delay (although it is still listed on the Wolf web site), and Hornady reportedly was just not interested in producing FMJ ammo in 6.5 Grendel.

I suppose there is no technical reason preventing AA from making FMJ ammo with the Norma 120gr bullet, but I suspect that pricing would not make it worthwhile. Besides, wound profile of the Norma FMJ is very much like that of non-fragmenting 7.62 M80, and lacking the early yaw that you desire. See attached.
