[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 1717979, member: 109862"] Life goes in circles. There is nothing new under the sun. The .264 was hated for being hard on barrels and lost out to the 7rem because it was deemed less versatile. Now 6.5s are all the rage, and with these new hot rods the old 264 win suddenly shines as a sensible, practical, magnum 6.5 cartridge. It’s the same phenomena I’ve observed and pointed out in another thread about Hornady a tips. Decades of technological breakthroughs and research and development and optimizing and perfecting have led them to the revelation that metal tips are superior to plastic. The Remington bronze point just might have been the very first true tipped hunting bullet ever marketed, long before plastic tips were a thing. What an epiphany. [/QUOTE]
