There's a good amount of information on the 6.5 and 30 cal A-Tip bullets but has anyone shot some of the .243 110gr A-Tip bullets yet, if so, what in and how did they do???

I'd think these would be a hammer, particularly in things like a fast twist 6-284 or 6-06/6-06AI.
 
I have put half a box down range, at 100 yds for load dev, they're alright, I guess? I used my 6 Creed 110SMk load data. I'l stick with the 110SMK.
 
I have not shot them personally but I have seen them shot out of a 6BR - PRS rifle and they shoot very very well.

Regardless of bullet weight each bullet should have a load work up done for each type of bullet. To think a certain load will work with two different bullets is not very likely. You would be better off trying to match the velocity first - if its a good node and then play with seating depth to duplicate load.

Sorry but no.....they won't be a Hammer....they will still be a Hornady....( Couldn't resist)

Yes to 110 gr A-tip. 6mm Creedmoor, 1/7 twist; 200 yds = less than 1/2 MOA. Last week, set scope elevation to 14 MOA, 5 hits on 9" gong at 800 yds, start to finish. Three shooters at gong; too hard to separate hits, but at least 1MOA or better. 3088 FPS, SD 14 at this time. Tested two Berger's and two additional Hornady bullets. Ladder testing as well. Like packaging and like the bullet: a bit costly. More to do. Good luck!
