Just saw these for sale at Mid-South. New to me but if you have tried these please share your results.
My next order will include a couple hundred to try out.

Are you thinking 6 MM ARC or do you have a 6 MM Creedmoor or 243? Ive never owned a 6 mm/243 so no experience with that bullet.

I've got a 1-7 twist 6mm Shilen barrel on order that's going to replace a 6.5 Grendel RAP., Chamber choices are 6mm Dasher, 6mmARC, 6MM Grendel/6mm AR, and 6 PPC.
I've tried the 85 Sierra's in my Ruger 77MKII VT 6ppc and they were pretty good. Howa 243 Win could test these as well.
With a B.C. of .365 the 6mm Hot-cor is not bad for an inexpensive bullet. Spitzer Soft point might make it multi-purpose.

They show potential in my .243.

Moderators, if this thread should be in the Grendel based wildcats section, move it there.
Side point, if you start a thread and want to delete it, what's the procedure?

Should be an interesting project, for the price I wouldnt be concerned about buying those bullets.

I also use the 85gr. Sierra's in my 243.
You can shoot a gnat's eye out with them!!
These look good for the price though.
