Just wanted some reviews on the bullet. I'll be loading it for my M1A. They've sold a bunch of them so I'm betting they are just fine. I've even knoticed one seller on GB that sells lots of stuff from Widener's, including these bullets, at much higher prices. Even has the same descriprion and pics as Widener's.

    I was using the 147 grain fmj by Winchester but just try to find them at a decent price now. I may have to switch to something else at the rate things are going. For a while there I could buy them at $45.00 for 500, I should have stocked up while they were at that price but as usual, I didn't. Now I am down to 200 and hoarding them like gold. My Garand just loves them out to 200 yards. I haven't shot them at a longer distance since we don't have a range around here that allows a longer yardage. I may have to go to something like the 145 grain.

    Good luck just finding the Winchester 147 gr FMJ, much less at a decent price! That's why I was pondering the ones from Widener's and asking for reviews.
