I don't know if any of you are interested but I emailed Hornady yesterday to inquire about buying the SST in bulk (specifically in quantities of 100 without sabots) and received a reply today that I should look for them in April. Just thought some of you might be interested.

Muzzlenut Thank You, I will check it out!!!

That'll be a good deal...the shockwaves are getting too expensive and they're the same as the SSTmls. Good thing my MLs love cheap shots for practice, though

Thanks muzzlenut

You can buy the same thing in bulk right now.

The Flextip bullets are a little different, but yeah that one would be close and is one of several new choices Hornaday has made available to us with that line. I'm particularly interested in the 265 and 325gr versions.

Well I am wondering about SST and Shock Waves being exactly the same. On my tests and I have noticed on several other peoples tests that the penetration and expansion shows up different especially when using Ballistic jell. Lee

Unless you plan to swap sabots, I don't see much of a savings in buying them that way.
