You can call hornady direct and they will ship and send them to you. As new as they are they might be hard to find in stores for awhile. I was looking at them on the Hornady site - but I didn't look at the prices - bet they are expensive tough.

I haven't called them for several months now but calling the 800 number and just listening the recorded message is worth the call, Karen, (I think itis Karen)the receptionist, has a great sense of humor besides being efficient.

Id like to see hornady offer these new bullets loaded in 44 mag. and 357 mag. for the marlin 1894 carbines.

I got the new Hornady catalog the other day and was looking at these. The chart in the catalog initially look pretty impressive but if you look closer, they have their new bullet starting in the neighborhood of 200 fps faster than a FP bullet. Thusly, the energy is higher downrange. The higher BC of this bullet does have a slight edge but for the normal use of the 30-30, 35, 45-70 etc. at ranges around 100 - 150 yds the difference is minimal.
I like Hornady bullets and use them alot but I don't think I'm gonna run out and buy these bullets so I can make my 35 Rem or 45-70long range rifles.

American Rifleman just reviewed these. They were impressed. Midway has them now. I'm going to try'em in the .30.30 & .444.
