Yep, just held a couple boxes an hour ago in Cleveland, OH.
Geez maybe one day I will see these in stores here! They must be on the same truck as the RL26!

no 30 cal yet!
I think the UPS drivers and working with ISIS selling the Atips and RL26 to them gearing them up for all their creedmoors! Only thing I can think off. Just great!
At least you got some coming sooner or later. No love for the 7mm
This is true nor love for the 338! Was so excited only to be let down, kinda like Christmas morning for the last 25 years despite my letters to Santa! My stupid kids still get hooked up but not me!
LMAO, yup true

It costs more more for the aluminum tip inserts, both for the tip and the production process. If b c holds up and they shoot well, I'll pay the extra. Especially if they perform on game.
Curious to try to these new ogives, but I expect we'll have to wait longer here in Europe before getting them... I'd like mostly to understand what will be the best twist rate for the 250 gr./300 cal. and how it will perform on game...Thanks for advising as soon as somebody of you guys will get the first tests with.

I think 9 will be minimum but you may be better off with 8-8.5 especially if you are low elevation
I just picked me up a couple boxes of 6.5's nearby.
The Scheels across the state had 6mm a week and a half ago.
Both places only had the 1 caliber and the place that had the 6mm had those for the past 2 weeks. Sales guy said they have not gotten anymore since the initial shipment.
They seem to be slowly trickling in.
Waiting to see the 30 cal.
They need to get the 7mm & 338's started as well.
PS. The boxes come with a Hornady cloth bag as well. Was not expecting that. Probably why they are twice the price lol
