    As the title says anyone using these or experience with them .How do they compare to Hornandy BTSP/SST.By the way tried with good success the BTSP 150Gr Hornandy but foolishly switched to the SST which imo are muck find them very inconsistent .Just looking for first hand reviews on the net they seem to have good reports.Rifle Remington 700 VLSF 308 1 in 12 twist.

    I'm using them for the last 2 years find them brilliant bullets. I used use federal fusion and found I got a lot of runners even with perfect shot placement. With the sako I have not had a runner yet. I used them in a tikka t3 and a ruger m77 and found them great I'm both guns. I would highly recommend them. I had to order them in especially as I could not get them in any shops here.

    My brother is not gone in the SST as they don't kiss. Poor grouping. I use GMX Hornady. Never once a runner and i've a good few culled. They are crazy accurate. Try a box and see but they are more expensive than SST

    Thats exactly why I am getting rid of them hate leaving a zero session with a doubt in the head,all shots in the bull but just over an inch group isn't what I expected was not impressed at all,lads with me were using core lokt & Hornandy BTSP which I find very good performed far superior to the SST.Just heard good things on the Sako so will give them a try
