Has anyone seen this before? I just received a catalog from Gunstop Reloading Supplies Inc. which listed this bullet and description. Very interesting indeed if this is not a misprint. $24.49 per box - $23.41 per box in quantities of five. I prefer lighter bullets and have only been disapointed by the lack of boatails. Higher B.C.'s and velocity too.

edited to add - My Sierra bullet chart shows this bullet w/o a boatail, I'm hoping they added one.

the sierra site doesnt list it with a boattail, they just show the 1800 as a 90 grain varmint style hollow point.

This is a good bullet for plinking: 28.5 - 29 gr. of H4198 moves them along pretty quickly just below light speed, BTW, Natchess had them at 19.00 and change for this bullet couple weeks ago, your price is high, but if that is the only one that has them they dictate the price.
