    They may be the best load you ever had in your rifle or there is a chance it may make a horrible load in your rifle. If it is will adding a half grain change the whole thing or maybe a full grain or more. Finding the perfect load in your rifle may be the neverending story. Try it and see. But I'm fairly sure they will at least be adequet.

    The only PRVI-Bullets that i can not recommend are the 174grs .311 FMJBT.
    They had differences in weight from 169grs. up to 181grs. wich gives different OAL`s and for that not the accurayc that i want.

    Regards

    Gunner

    Sorry , can't help you, I live in canada and can get them from a small dealer here. Unlikely it would possible for you to order from him, and even if you could the cost would be unappealing, you should be able to get remington or Hornady bulk bullets cheaper down there.

    I am happy with their brass and their bullets. The bullets may not be up to Sierra Palma standards but suit me fine. I was happy to see them carry .366 diameter bullets for my 9.3x62 rifle. Check out Graf and Sons in Missouri.

    The only possible problem you might have is with the boat tail bullets and worn barrels, BUT this applies to ALL boat tails no matter who makes them.
