    I have seen the reviews here and elsewhere with factory loaded Sierra ammo struggling. My experience with Sierra components for handloading though, has me in love with them. This video adds to the cockpit hash marks for them. I am fairly certain all their product lines are descendents of gameking and varminter soft points, hollows, spitzers, and now tipped also, even when it is called "match" which their product descriptions point to even in detail.

    Nice Shellshock + Sierra Matchkings cant be a bad combo. Great to see this test Tools. Its really amazing how that 16" boolit fragments and stops penetrating at 8-12" of penetration. It Really shows the difference in Pistol and Rifle ammo, and the hydrostatic shock part of the rifle cartridge. That is what is really devastating over all the slower fps pistol calibers IMHO.

    The ammo shines in short barrels. And also is very accurate compared to standard ball, so it’s useful for the extra 200 yards from 400-600. A 4moa will print 24 in at a minimum which won’t work. Even 2 moa and you have a 50%.

      Nice! There is absolutely no way I could go back to regular ear muff style at this point. No sweaty ears, no banging into the gun stock. I did a full review video on them a while back but if you haven't seen that, I would personally recommend using the cylinder shaped foams they send and the biggest ones you can squeeze in your ears. They might be a little uncomfortable at first if you're not used to using in-ear type, but they will fit perfect after having them in a few times and the cylinder ones give protection from the biggest/loudest stuff I own.

    I run Black Hills Mk262 77gr OTM for defensive use, but if the price is right, I would definitely consider these instead.
    May I ask how you like that red dot and what magnifier you're running? I had a fire several months ago and lost most of my stuff. So, when I'm able to eventually start replacing things, I'm not able to go too expensive for now.

    • @ToolsandTargets
      @ToolsandTargets  Месяц назад +1

      The Riton dot is good as any I've used. Not sure what the price is on em, but you might be able to get a Holosun for the same cost and they have shake awake which I'm a big fan of. The magnifier is the titanium version Holosun, but the aluminum one is a good bit less expensive and actually easier to set up on a lot of rifles, because it has a longer body to make up a little for the short eye relief.

    That ammo is essentially the civilian version of 77gr MK 262 MOD 1-C with the hybrid /exotic case components of the SIG Fury. I’m surprised it wasn’t loaded a little hotter with the higher case pressure rating. Either way good stuff.

    I would have loved to see the 243 Win loads I hand loaded back in high school would have done in gel. I had the 85 gr Sierra BTHP at about 3150 to 3200 fps and would blow up a ground hog at 200+ yards. It was pretty hot, maybe a bit high pressure. I think the powder was IMR 3031. It would get 1 MOA or better out of my rifle.

      @@ToolsandTargets I would love to see if a hand loader could duplicate that load. I think it was only 36 gr of powder or so. That was in the late 80s out of a Winchester model 70. I think they still make the bullet.
      Got to be careful hand loading though, I cannot even find that load in a manual today with 3031 but I am sure there is a powder that can substitute or be better.

    I’d be afraid they would wear out the extractor of my rifle too quickly. One of the reasons I have a love/hate relationship with Sig is because I’ve worn out extractors on 3 different polymer copies with the soft Russian steel case ammo. I’m sure the plethora of AR extractors means some would wear quickly and how do you know compatibility in advance? Just not worth the risk.
