Ohhhh. I used Sierra when I started in the late 80's. Dad liked them and Nosler Partitions. He liked the bc on the Sierras and low cost.how long have you considered Hornady a premier bullet maker?
I'm wondering when I missed the transition. I started out with Nosler and Sierra in the 70/80's because they were the only 2 large scale manufacturers that were consistent at the time. Speer and Hornady were NOT of the same quality.
They call that development. Marketing is what you do to sell your engineering improvements. Surely you get that, or are you still off-roading with a 2wd?Years ago Hornady came out with the A-Max, plastic tip. Ones I used shot well. Sierra followed with their version then Hornady came out with another version of tipped bullets, ELD I think. Now it's Hornady with A-tip match (aluminum tips). It's just marketing…..
The companies are in the bullet selling business We're in the bullet buying business ergo……
Yea, and heat sucks.engineers are great only in their own minds
If you say so, make your own science. Test it if you want….or just make it up.Follow the science "wear the mask " take the vaccine" it is engineered
I can't comment on their bullets because I have not loaded/shot/hunted with them since Interbond which were good projectiles but I can comment on their dies and brass. Very disappointing! I'm grateful they give the shooting/loading/hunting community an option in components and would like to see our community have plenty of options in choosing their choice components for themselves. They are not in my rotation of loads but I'm sure no one cares as my only interest in others' loads is their experience and are satisfied. No matter which projectile, send it!Hornady dies…..a whole discussion of its own!

Thank you.I bought shot capsules from these guys. They show .44 in stock
Yep^ This.
We are currently working on a way to share consistency data industry wide in a way that is fair to the companies, and usable to the public.I for one would like to see Bryan Litz do an analysis of this and publish the results.
Applied Ballistics isn't just Bryan. We're an independent lab that does 3rd party testing for many companies (not just Berger), and Bryan is not making every decision/conclusion. In the end, we're judged by the accuracy of our information, which we encourage people to verify. That's the best we can do.He works for Berger. It would be like Ford telling you what they thought about Chevy.
Hornady bullets are not expensive and readily available, so it's pretty easy for an average guy to do their own analysis by shooting them. Not as easy as complaining about the "evil marketing" on a free forum I suppose.
No. I have had this conversation with a number of manufacturers. They do not all do this. For instance Fiocchi works hard to stick with powders they know are cleaner, instead of chasing velocity. Berger uses Vihtavuori and so does Lapua for their production ammo.... In short they do not all do this.Don't they all use a blend of many for mass production?
