No, and I probably won't.

If I want a cheap 168, I will use Hornady at 39.99 per 100. If I want a match bullet I will use the SMK at 52.99 per 100. These bullets are 59.00 per 100... Are we comparing an in house bullet from everglades to Berger's? Because that is the only way I could see justifying the price.

Yeah I use the Hornady 168’s as my plinking match bullets . Anything else must be 175 or heavier if I plan to get serious .
