ok all you experts.
sometime back i purchased 500 bullets from midway, there blemished bullets. they were supposed to be .224 52gr match boat tail hollowpoint. when i got them in, the package said 52gr match boat tail hpo, but when i opened the box, inside were these. they are .224 52 grain match tip cannelured flat base...i called midway and they told me these were sent by mistake, and sent me the proper ones. they told me to keep these, free of charge for the trouble.
i weighed about 50+ of these individually on my chargemaster 1500 powder scale, and every single one weighs exactly 52gr on the nose with no variations.
OK...now ive did as much research as i can. firstly, ive found there arent many 52 grain bullet makers out there. i cant find a single ne myself who makes a 52 grain cannelured match tip flat base.
they shoot EXCEPTIONALLY WELL from my 223 contenders sitting on H322 powder, so load datas not a problem. what is bugging me is the manufacture.
