If this is correct I can understand why.
Economics, as the Sierra bullet is "junk" and the XTP and GD are more expensive changing to a less expensive bullet allows for increased profit.
This is very sad indeed but I believe it is inevitable and an indicator as a sign of the times.
It was Corbon to be among the first of the "Semi-Custom" makers to allow the desire for higher quarterly earnings to outweigh the needs of the consumer.
Unfortunately, it is realitvely easy to see that performance with the sierra loaded by Texa Ammunition will be equally as poor as the Corbon loads as basic performace factors like velocites and energy cannot change very much among these makers.
I concur, a 135gr Sierra 10mm bullet is definitely not my idea of a personal defense load for two legged predators.
Where is Agent Fox Mulder as this could be a possible cosnpiracy to force the consumer to use more ammo in a shootout as anyone carrying these rounds will now need all 10 versus 2 or 3 good rounds, maybe it is an alien conspiracy to decrease the population of good people and allow all of the criminals to live/multiply and run rampant.
Editorial comment:
I am kidding about the conspiracy, but I am not kidding when I say the load "stinks".
Before I recieve a slew of email from the light/fast crowd, please keep them.
You can carry your bullets and I will be more than happy to keep mine, you don't need my approval.
As always please test your equipment personally before you actually carry it.
