Federal Edge TLR bullets

Has anyone one tried the new Edge bullets? I like what I have read about them, the only thing that kinda turns me off is the black Nickle body. Wonder how good or bad they are for fouling, & any issues with cleaning the rifle?

Cleaned my 300 WSM once since using the Edge Bullets no issues cleaning at all.
Also shot a Spike bull last weekend for meat...
Shot him at 165 yards facing me dropped him in his tracks.

Read the link below for a review of the bullet on a bull elk. I will also be using the bullet on my kids cow elk hunt and will report back.

Got to try out several of the 175gr Edge TLR from my 300WSM. WT buck at 310 yds DRT pass through looked like bullet held together found no shrapnel shoulder hit but not excessive damage. 195 yds 150 lb sow behind shoulder hit pass though ran 30 yds again no found shrapnel and 3rd 110 yds 225lb sow same shot as other sow same results 30yds fall over. Bullet seems to hold together well even when I hit the bucks should blade. Liking the bullet so far.

Shot several today at 800 yards. 300 RUM IMR 7828 SSC 3070 fps. Lost 26.86 gr.

I really like their impact performance but they really need to tighten up their quality control and/or mfg process
A lot of bullet to bullet variation!

Just shot some 175's in my friends custom 30-06 this weekend with excellent results. 1/4" group with minimal load workup. Looking forward to their performance on mule deer next couple weeks.
