Anyone have any 120gr Remington Corelokt pills in their kit?
I know they are discontinued but I believe some shops still have reasonable quantities laying around.

I know which projectile you mean--- the 6.5mm one- you forgot to mention caliber
Get behind me in line mate

I have been using them for 10+ years and wish to continue

I had a line on a big box of them but the guy suddenly stopped answering emails and such

I can prolly score you some 140's cheap if you want to try them- the wonkies wont notice

later

Thanks Pat,
It is the 120 pill I was after... The Tikka will be a cull gun once I get a couple of spare 5 shot mags for it hence the need for 'cheapish' bulk pack pills.

Thanks for the offer Brad, I have some 140's to hand here already though :)

Id pick the core-lots over the speers even if they were that little bit more expensive

i dont have anything against the remy's but i was already running the speers and had done most of my load testing with the speers due to the lack of the remingtons and didnt see any point changing back to a pill with shady availability, if (like yourself) i had used heaps of the remingtons then i would have jumped at teh chance for some more

I have some 100 and 120gr Sierra pills I found in amongst my crap and a half packet of 120 ballistic tips as well :/

Amazing how much crap we collect and then it comes in handy (At least that's what I tell the minister for war) :mrgreen:
