I bought them in 308 caliber for a bear hunt. They shot very tight groups but unfortunately I was unable to take a bear so now that wait until I go boar hunting again. Hard to find and very expensive here in US.Thank you Dave, it will make for much easier re=loading for this caliber...

Wyatt , I was wondering why /how is it possible for the originator of the video I uploaded in regards to him measuring .302" above the cannular and the .306" measurement at the boat tail part below the cannular ..but you and fellow members do not get these measurements..does it mean the GP-11 bullets made later years are different made than the first originals made in the earlier years???A while back I measured one @sestoppelman I remember the front being smaller but can’t remember exactly how big. The rear portion of my bullet measured .307 I also measured a 168 grain SMK and it measured .308 for reference.
I know this is an older thread but its been resurrected. I didnt see your post of earlier.Feedback: the .306 " bullets made by Perigrine for me is not seating at all. The Lee dies set /seating die is made for the .308" diameter bullet...It seems I will not be able to reload the .306" bullets like the GP-11 ammo . I was wondering if a longer .308 " bullet will work since the standard .308" bullet has to be seated deep into the case for crimping and proper seating?? Any suggestions members??
If there is a USA hunter coming to SA this year I would really appreciate it much if he can bring me the clamp on scope mount again from the Swiss Company in the USA who make these mounts..Please do not bring anything if it is not a direct flight..those arabs will steel it again...I now understand why Western countries do not trust companies like Quatar employees, since they are stealing tourists property....
I am unsure. I only have a couple dozen of the GP11 so I only pulled one.Wyatt , I was wondering why /how is it possible for the originator of the video I uploaded in regards to him measuring .302" above the cannular and the .306" measurement at the boat tail part below the cannular ..but you and fellow members do not get these measurements..does it mean the GP-11 bullets made later years are different made than the first originals made in the earlier years???
No idea, I have always gotten mine on line. I have a case of it which will last me a loooog time.Thank you member it is always much appreciated receiving great info from members. I was wondering why the GP-11 bullets never landed on ammo shop shelves at all??? Any reason why this bullet was never sold in ammo shops ???
True to form.... here is the name under my K31's butt plate. I deleted areas of ID. The K31 is the Rolex of rifles.Have you taken the steel buttplate off the rifle yet? The Swiss were citizen soldiers and it was customary to put a white card under the buttplate with the name, rank and unit of the person the rifle was issued to. I’ve got one and they are very accurate rifles. The GP11 issued ammo is match quality but expensive and hard to find now.
I think it may cause ejection problems, unless the scope was mounted very high which would be no good.
If you can get the swiss products mount it is very well designed. And can mount in seconds.
