Cutting Edge Bullets 160gr polymer tip,

Typo in listing mentions 458 SOCOM in one place, but it is indeed for 450b

Its interesting to me in that it implies that they successfully got a 160gr bullet to function successfully in an AR based platform. That in itself is an accomplishment. Once they get into circulation, it will be equally interesting to see how they group.

I have to agree, and the velocity they state is real nice! However, I tested the 135 Lehigh XD's in a Tromix 18" midlength barrel running a Slash XH buffer, and got them to cycle with Lilgun. Do I get a cookie? ;)
