rocky mountain reloading supply has overun bullets on sale for $130 per 1k they can not disclose the manufacturer. the details they give are: they are us made, 160 gr, soft point not poly, boat tail, and not normally available as a reloading componant.
sny guesses on what bullet it may be?

If I had to put money on it, I would say that the bullets were made by Speer via electrolysis. I believe Speer is behind the Fusion bullet. This is right up their alley, most likely an experimental bullet that never hit the market. The boattail is a small tell.

I bought a heap of Sierra seconds a few years back 6mm 100gn GK still using them, I've shot a lot of deer with them and can't tell the difference and very accurate.

Cheers

seems like a bargain.

when i first saw federal fusions ammo i thought it would perform similar to speer hotcors, i have seen that now you can buy the fusion projectiles for reloading.
the same parent company owns speer and federal from what i have read so not sure if they are them same or different?? anyone compared the two?
