[QUOTE="Eric Stecker, post: 432002, member: 8908"] We have been unable to recreate the results that allow us to declare a velocity that we can say is consistently [I][B]the[/B][/I] limit that the current bullets will take. Those who are reporting problems are relaying that they are shooting at higher velocities but others who are shooting at these same velocities are not having the same problems. This makes finding the root cause challenging but at the same time it also helps as it eliminates things as well. The best answer I can provide to your first question is that you should try them in your rifle. If you observe no issues then your rifle does not produce the negative end result and you are fine. If you observe poor performance at higher velocities and you desire to shoot only at these higher velocities then we will replace all your bullets including those you've shot with the new version. The answer to your second question is yes. The original bullets will continue to be made. There is a chance that the revised bullet uses the same external dimensions as the original bullet. If the external of the revised bullet is the same and the performance is the same as the original bullet we may end up with one bullet in the end. To be clear this will happen only if the performance of the revised bullet is the same or better than the original while at the same time the external dimensions are the same. The original bullet is performing very well for most shooters who try it so we will continue to make this bullet. Until we know which changes will be made to the revised bullet there is no way for us to know what the revised bullet will consist of. If I were to put money on it I'd estimate that the revised bullet will be externally identical to the original bullet but this is speculation. Regards, Eric [/QUOTE]
