[QUOTE="Kevin Thomas, post: 346426, member: 15748"] Roy, If you're looking at the 30 cal jacket at 1.155", that's the standard jacket for the 168 MK, if the seller isn't listing it as such. These have been sold through R.W. Hart and Bob Cauterrucio for many years now, so I'm assuming that's where you found them? If I recall corrrectly, they should run between .028" to .032", depending on caliber, etc.. As Boss said, they vary from one application to another, but all of the match bullets tend to be thinner than a hunting jacket of the same caliber. Most are straight walled, though there are a few that utilize a double taper, or a stepped thickness. Unless they started doing it recently, these aren't ones they sell as jackets, but are used only for their own internal production. What's your project here, anyway? Kevin Thomas Lapua USA [/QUOTE]
