then ya... pretty much all the data and results you're gonna find on this forum are related to the "new" sst.... because anything that could have been considered a "old" sst - if there even is a "old" sst - sold out by December 20 2012 or so... because of the politics following Sandy Hook shooting, which happened 1 day after the thread you reference and i've screenshotted above. my blackout upper was on backorder at the time, and it probably cost me a couple months of delivery time. thankfully it showed up in time to get it ready for deer season 2013....
generally speaking... i dont think many - if any - of us were even able to buy a 125 SST in 2013.... or any 30 cal bullet for that matter unless you had a gilded horseshoe up your chocolate starfish when you happened into the store as they were unloading a miracle delivery box of bullets tipped with glitter frosted unicorn horn. (yes theres a fair amount of sarcasm there for the new folks)

I can't remember if anyone has, which probably means the results were not stellar.
I started of with wetpack, still use it if I don't want to melt gel. Newsprint, tightly packed, very wet will give you similar results.
You can't beat the mountain, pilgrim. Mountains got its own way.
( CAUTION ! ! ! THIS LOAD IS 6/10 GR OVER MAX LISTED BY BARNES ! ! ! ) ( it works well in my gun but load up safe and responsible for your own.)
I Like the accuracy of the 110 tac-tx over 20.8 gr of H110, but i dont like what it does to my brass.
( i need to back off my crimp some and i think that will take care of some of the bass beating, but it was my hunt load and was too close to season to re-work.
Did well for me on the hunt though, and the brass didnt get beat as bad when the temps went down 30*f.
Anyone else load up in that area?
It was the most accurate load i had in my work up with an es of 3 and sd of 1.7
Vel. Was 2,245 fps from my 8" AR
In all reality though i am going to stick to max, maybe test my hunt load without the crimp so heavy.
