  Guess they loaded it better then if true. I wouldn't mind picking up a few to see!

I wonder what bullet design they were loading in those.

$1.00 a round got too expensive for my bidding blood. I doubt they can rival what is out there now like their 165 Critical Defense for the same money.

Agreed.  The only reason to buy it at that cost point is collecting out of production ammo.

I asked him about the bullets and he posted a picture in the new auction:

Interesting.  I wonder if those were the standard hollow point bullets by Hornady before the XTP existed.

They look like a cross between a Nosler and PPU bullet  :o

I don't recognize them.  Not even a guess.

Looks to me like an old design from the days when a HP was made by taking a flat soft point and making a hole in it.

Probably will work fine at proper 10mm velocities, if they hold together.

Looks like the HAP bullet, meant as a target bullet. Not meant for expansion. http://www.hornady.com/store/10mm-.400-180-GR-HAP/

LOL, they do have that HAP bullet look to them.
