Anyone using the new Hornady FPB bullets?

[fairchaser]

Tired of pushing hot plastic down my barrel and thought I would try the new 300 gr Hornady FPB's. The reviews I've read said they are hard to push down the barrel on some ML but accurate. I have a TC Omega. Anyone have an opinion?

Don't buy them,I bought 2 boxes and could not get them to go down barrel but I thought it was me and sold them to my neighbor and he could not get them started down the barrel either!

I've started using the Barnes TEZ in my Omega. It loads much easier than anything else I've used and are very accurate. 100 grains of 777 makes a very good combination.

I tryed some in my omega z5 and did not group well, some did not even hit the paper they were so bad I gave them away to a guy at the range. I tryed them with 90 to 100 gr of blackhorn. I have some Thor bullets that I was going to try this year to see how they do, they are like the fpb. The Thor bullet is a Barnes bullet that doesn't need a sabot. And if you call Thor they will give you sample.

I had high hopes for the first FPBs (350gr. I think) but they were all over the place out of my Triumph.

Thanks Slim Jim. I'll give the Barnes (Thors)a try. Let me know what you think after you use them.
