I saw this ammo at Scheel's today ...

Oh geez. They market a 65gr 9mm at 1800 fps. Not sure how I feel about that. Maybe it'll appeal to the light and fast crowd?

They only have a few on the shelf, probably trying out how the consumers respond. I am glad we have more choices, and the shelves (at least the ammo) are getting restocked.

Well done Feenix! But your list is 13 items longer than I can get here in Canada!

Sorry, Brother, hopefully availability gets better for all of us in due time.

It would be interesting to see the ranking by sales volume. Probably not possible, but interesting.

I'm sure Barnes is way ahead of everyone just for being around for so long and available in multiple calibers and multiple brands of loaded ammo.

There you go; it sounds like good research for you to find the research gap. Go for it!

Drop down to50 grain bullets at1900 fps and you just shot a 22 magnum. Just saying.

To many choices, can't we just go back to like four manufacturers, I must be getting old. The worst part is being in Oregon the mono Cali problem is going to come our way.

"The ALCO bullet ULD specification includes a rebated boat tail (RBT) design instead of the standard boat tail for about 15% gain in accuracy by reducing muzzle-blast induced dispersion."​

I think you're right Old rooster. I would think if this was true - every benchrest record would be broken with these bullets.
