You can have some if you want but ask Ogre what they are and if you can get some more just in case they turn out to your liking.
No worries Trevor, hope they work out for you.
Ill PM ogre and ask him what they are. Thanks

I hope everyone gets behind this idea as it is a great concept!

I just swapped some of my 55gn 6mm with Dave for some 87gn Vmaxs. It only cost a couple of bucks for the postage!

As already mentioned, it is a cheap way for a person to try a projectile without have to buy a whole box!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers mate, might give them a go tmrow as i only had a chance to run a second lot of 87s through the 243 and so far seems pretty promising. 44.5gr of 2209, once fired rem brass and a cci br2 primer looks like it will be minute of rabbits head @ 100 mtrs, may look at some better brass in the not so distant future to see if there is any change.
