Anyone tried these? If so what was the accuracy like?

I haven't but a lot of the M1 shooters I know like them. The 150's are very consistent.

(We shoot the Garand on a 200 yard reduced target course, so no real need for the 168s)

Are these the guys who are (or were) in the Los Angles area? I lost their ph. number, etc.. Can someone provide it?
I used their .223 and 7.62 fmj's with good results. But they threw in a few samples of 168 gr. fmj all with the canallure(sp) in different places.

Why would they run a cannelure in a match bullet?

Some of the M1 matches require it. Yu have to shoot mil-surp or handloads with a cannelured bullet.

I've used their 223, 9mm and 45acp with good results..
