I used a bunch of the 173 grain M118's a few years ago. Still have some around. Nutin' wrong with them at all.

I'm betting your 168 grains were made by Sierra under contract.

yessirree,
if you can afford to drop a fair amount of cash all at once you can save some money.
but it dont tickle to drop $120+ all at once on a jug of powder.
