Yes, there's a report on the 160-grain .30/30 round in G&Athis month. The Hornady-claimed MV of 2400 FPS was not realized in the two Marlins used (20" barrels). They only got around 2200. In addition, the B.C. of the "pointed" 160-grain bullets was only .330, whereas the 170-grain flatnose is around .250. Some improvement, but not much!! IMO, it is just a gimmick to sell more ammo!

And, as usual, the "experts" are fully cooperating with the maker's marketing department, writing it up as if it were the latest improvement on canned beer or sliced bread!
