    77gr Bonded TOTM...

    What happened to this projectile? It was around 15 years ago as part of a skunkworks style project that spawned mk318 mod 0 sost...and nothing ever came of it. Why? Is it shelved somewhere that it could be brought back to life? It would make an amazing hunting round (likely a bit penetrative for LE use).

    Tactical Open Tip Match. TOTM was the initial working name of the SOST round and this initial version of SOST was manufactured with a bonded core.

    Thanks... With the speer gold dot 75g bonded round out now I am not sure what the advantage would be at this point.

    …except that it seems to be out of stock everywhere, too.

    Thanks, Doc.

    I’d love to find a source for the projectiles, so I could roll my own.

    While you’re around, do you have any additions / updates to the list of recommended 5.56 / .223 rounds for defensive and duty use?

    I sold 1400 rounds of it today. Took about a week to move at $1/per, shipped.

    Ah, you’re talking about cartridges.

    I was talking about projectiles.
