Anybody tried the "New" Nosler Challenge

I've seen the ad, this month's NRA mag says it promises equivalent accuracy at a "substantial" cost savings.

I must assume this means a savings over Sierra MKs.

Well, anybody try them?

BTW, the deal is for 20 bullets and a Nosler Hat, $4.99 or something, to cover shipping.

I haven't seen the ad but I don't see how they can claim a savings over other bullets except maybe some "premium" bullets from other makers. Even the few remaining good old fashioned solid base Nosler bullets are expensive. I still have a small supply of some of them, from back when they came in boxes of 100.

I have been using these for a couple of months in my 308's, and they are just as accurate for me (as the MK168s), and much cheaper.
I say give them a try. Best price I found is MidSouth, about $34 for 250.
