Seems like some of the F Class shooters like and use them.
Benchrest, ELR, ULR guys stay away from them.
If you have a fast twist, and are pushing them past about 3,000 fps they are known to blow up.
As in you get the boom of the shot, followed by another boom almost immediately after from the bullet coming apart. About 50-100 yards down range.
My Mauser in 284 Win has a long freebore. I can seat the 162s out to where the neck barely holds the bullet. Seated to Hornady's suggested 2.995" i've had them group fairly well. But realistically no better than a Nosler Ballistic Tip.
Bear in mind, it's a hunting rifle, not a heavy barrel.
When shooting matches i'm using Sierra Tipped MatchKings.
