Yeah. They are a bonded bullet. Part of the reason I was considering them.

Well...

As a matter of fact (according to the SPEER ballisticians) the new .264/140 gr. Grand Slam has a BC of 0.498.

$0.28/bullet, not counting the Rebate.

Got a lifetime supply for my 6.5x55mm Swede.

Please PM me w/ info on where to obtain at the quoted price. Maybe they have some 257/243s at that price.

I believe their website may be in error. For years Speer has claimed a B.C. of 0.498 for the 140g HotCor, not the GS. Now their website shows 0.498 for the GS and 0.405 for the HotCor. I believe they likely have those listed in reverse.
