Okay so I got my 400 rounds of MilSurp via UPS today, and I open up the box and there was a folded adpaper. So I unfolded it and it was a poster for Sierra Ammunition. So my question is has anyone of you guys used Sierra before? If so what expieriences have you had good/or bad.
Also if "one" were to fire a 230+gr. bullet what kind of rifle would they need to be able to handle that? I already know I won't be trying to fire it in my rifle. Not that I need to anyway. I will be just fine with my 150gr. But I was just wondering cause they have those bullets listed under "Specialty Long Range" bullets.
Also after looking at the ammo I got today. I cannot tell the difference between FMJ and the soft point Remington ammo I got at wally-world. Only difference I see is the FMJ has a longer bullet. The shell is exactly the same length and the bullet does not show more in the soft point than the FMJ.So what's the deal I don't understand the reason for having FMJ ammo. I only bought it cause of the quantity and price. And why do some ranges allow them and some don't? Is there any significant purpose for having FMJ ammo? Just wondering.
BTW those damn ammo crates (boxes) are a pain in the ass to open at first. :banghead: Took me forever to open it. :banghead: I guess it was vacuum sealed or something. But now that I have it open it is alot easier to open.
