Looking for some cheap bullets to load in my daughter's 7mm-08 just to get her some more trigger time and shoot 6" gongs @ 100 yards, I ran across these on Midway for $16.00 for 100. https://www.midwayusa.com/product/4...ed-spitzer-boat-tail-box-of-100-bulk-packaged..Midway lists them as "150 grain Bonded Spitzer Boat Tail" I've only loaded 50 so far but I measured/weighed each one and they are very much within acceptable variances, and only blem I can see is some have some light "water marks" and the tips have dark smudges in places..They fly true, considering I didn't do any load development, just used a generic load of 47 gr of RL-19 and still managed an average of 1.25" groups..So now I'm wondering what these bullets are..First impression is a Rem Accutip, but, to my knowledge, the Accutip isn't bonded, and midway lists them as bonded, so stumped again..At any rate, they are more than capable of hitting the 6" gong at 100 yards, so a good, cheap way to let her shoot a bunch. So what do the bullet gurus here think these are?
