OK thanks. No accuracy issues with factory 2nd blems?
I never used factory 2nds. Anything I need to look out for ?

I has serious issues with factory seconds from Midway. They were supposedly Nosler but looked more like Hornady SST... They were 25 cal. Problem was the weights were all over the place. Seems it was like +/- 3 gr. or something. And bullet lengths were all over the place too. I tried sorting them but still has accuracy issues with them.
Some one said that seconds, lots of times, are the bullets they are making while testing and they re-calibrating the equipment for production runs. I believe that's what my seconds were.
Your mileage may vary.

I've had no issues buying seconds and blems from Shootersproshop. Honestly, I haven't been able to tell the difference between them and the regular ones, except the packaging. The blems and seconds are usually in a sealed bag, instead of a box. Buy with confidence.

Please don't use of he ballistic tips for close range high velocity hunting impacts !
Absolutely not. I hunt with accubonds out of a magnum .The thread was about switching to Ballistic Tips for target shooting during the summer to help save a couple dollars.
