A-Max's do not have a alloy tip.
I would go out on a limb and suspect these may be A-Tips. Looking closer at the picture . They may not even be A-Tip's??

They original ones did. i shot them in an 7mm STW a long time ago. When they first came out. Bought the first ones to hit the shelves at Grice gun shop in Clearfield PA. Most streamlined bullets i ever saw. The three A Max styles through the years below.

I think I was the one that posted that picture years ago. Casey is correct, they are the original A-Max also called National Match. Hornady only made one lot of those, #28401.. Production was ceased because the bullets were tearing up the dies.. that's a direct quote from Hornady.
I have a good bit of these bullets..

Vld seaters would go a long way with these bullets. They shot great for me, I just found another bullet i liked better and stuck with it.
