First up is the 120-grain 6mm A-Tip. It has a published G1 BC of .675, which is exceptional for a bullet this diameter. It is a little heavy for use in smaller cartridges like the 6mm ARC, but in a 6mm GT or Dasher, these bullets will be hard to beat. As with all of the other A-Tip projectiles, be sure to use the special seating stem to avoid damaging these very sleek bullets during loading.

From the manufacturer:

Tip Design

• Aluminum tip is precision machined and longer than polymer tips which moves the center of gravity and enhances inflight stability.
• The patented DVRT™ (Drag Variability Reduction Technology) tip design features a flat meplat that increases bullet drag uniformity for less dispersion and smaller groups at longer ranges.
• Perfect blend of ogive, tip length, bearing surface and optimized boattail by caliber.

Performance

• Doppler radar verified low drag coefficient (high BC) bullets are forgiving of twist rate, seating depth and muzzle velocity.
• Refined design of the AMP® bullet jacket offers industry leading uniformity and concentricity.

Manufacturing

• Right off the press – sequentially packaged, one clone after another for the ultimate in consistent performance.
• Minimal handling throughout the manufacturing process ensures consistency from bullet to bullet.
• Packaged with a polishing bag to prepare bullets for loading (bullets aren’t bulk washed after manufacture).
