Herter sold CHEEP things. Some had great quality. Some not. Weigh the Herter bullets and unless you got the rare birds you will find quite a variation. Not consistent with best accuracy. Since no more are available, don't get attached. Mr. Corbin, Dave thinks that this was some kind of manufacturing mistake that old Geo. the super salesman was taking advantage of. De Haas thought that his bolt actions were Mark X seconds... XKE and J9 anyway.
Noslers have always had a much better, more consistent rep. Later bullets may be prettier with colorful plastic noses. Does anyone think an animal can see that pretty tip as the bullet arrives??? These should shoot well, but what the gun likes is the final test. luck.
