[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 1131249, member: 35183"] Grafs has the 95gr SMK in stock for around 30c a bullet [url=http://www.grafs.com/retail/catalog/product/productId/17539]Graf & Sons - SIERRA 6MM(.243)95gr HPBT BULLET MATCHKING 100/bx[/url] I think you could do a lot worse than trying those. A 95gr bullet with a good BC that you can stabilize will shoot considerably better than something that is marginally stabilized and give erratic performance. One is also safely able to get more powder behind a 95gr than a 105gr. Unfortunately for me, I got started with this hobby in mid 2011 so there was a very short period when it was easy to buy just about anything you needed (which I didn't know I needed yet, as it turns out) before the series of mass shootings and subsequent pandemonium. So in several years, the only SMK bullets I was able to get were some 175SMK in 30 caliber that were sold as "Grafs" branded seconds. The 105gr Amax was discontinued by Hornady for a few years during the crisis but now they are back at it again. [/QUOTE]
