I am waiting to see if they will group in the khornet. If not I am not interested. Hate to say that but I am a little worried after last weekends shooting since I have never had that problem with any reloads before and kind of thought most that clamed that just screwed up

Mine too (I contacted them, begging for a bullet {to use!}) It would be good P.R. to have a no-lead/non-toxic bullet to shoot where appropriate!

I recently tried the Barnes Varmint Grenade bullets in my 223 TC Contender Carbine and found velocites were good and accuracy inline with other loads I have used in that rifle. I used Hornady brass, Federal 205 primers, Leupold 3-9 scope, rear bag and bi-pod front. This is out of a 16.25 inch barrel.
