My number one complaint is grouping and they didn't shoot anywhere near other premium bullets at least in 7mm and 30 caliber rifles I have owned and with a combination of standard and magnum calibers. They shoot terribly I will tolerate 1 1/2 groups but not 3-4 inch groups and that was the result I was getting with trophy bonded bullets..incidentally they were factory ammo Federal and Federal HE that I used. I have only started handloading in the last 5 years or so previous to that prior to hunting season I would buy 20 boxes of ammo..10 of premium and 10 of practice ammo in the same bullet weight. I would shoot the 10 boxes of practice ammo and shoot the premium ammo until i was down to 3-4 boxes and then go hunting. I used all popular brands except Remington core-lockt. I found that factory loads that didn't include TB bullets were very accurate in all my guns ..Hornady's, Noslers, Combined Technology all shot great . Now if they shoot better then 1 1/2 in your gun stay with them I won't waste my money on them again and there are better bullets out there.
