OSOK, no, I don't live around Sibley, MO. But I've shot a bunch of their ammo and talked with their ballistics folks by phone a few times about their ammo when I was on a military rifle team. One lot of LC M118 match would shoot a few bullets from a box of 20 about 130 fps slower than normal; they would go in about 2 feet low at 600 yards.
