I don't know why yo keep wasting your time. The're too long... You'll never get them to stabilise!

Ed do you mean RS 40? Cannot find RS 42 anywhere

NIce! @Edinburgh Rifles, I'll have some of them when you come down for the range day on the 6th!

The $1,000,000 question @Edinburgh Rifles ... how much per box of 20?

Very Good.
If they are for Roe , what is their terminal performance without the tip?
Any one tried.

I'm still using 35 gr Hornady in my .222.
I will try some of the fox 50 gr tip less.

Pretty much the same as with the tip. The tip is just a little piece of plastic that protects the hollow point from deformation and to give a nice streamlined shape. It will also improve the BC which of course really matters once you get out 300 plus metres.
