The earlier Sierras were so fragile they'd come apart in flight - when pushed fast enough in the 5-35 SMc round. The 204 can barely get them fast enough, but they were on the ragged edge. I understand the current Sierras are a smidge tougher. The Hornady has always held together for me even up to 4300 fps. I have samples but haven't shot the Nosler or the Barnes flyweight Varmint Grenade. Too many other projects.
