Hornady® A-Tip® Match Bullets win 2020 AG Cup Championship

Grand Island, NE — Hornady® A-Tip® Match bullets were used to take first, second, third and fourth place at the 2020 Armageddon Gear Cup match, October 30-31 in Blakely, Georgia. Hornady congratulates Austin Orgain, Robert Brantley, Tate Streater, and Dave Preston on their outstanding performance.

All four shooters placed in the top five shooting Hornady 6mm 110 gr. A-Tip® Match bullets with Austin Orgain taking home the trophy. “A-Tip bullets are the most forgiving bullets I have ever loaded” said Orgain. “Combine a high-quality bullet with high BC’s, you have a winning combination. Orgain added.

Years of research and testing by the Hornady® Ballistic Development Group, combined with advanced manufacturing processes and quality control measures have led to the creation of the ultimate low drag, high performance match bullet.

The most striking visual feature of the A-Tip® bullet is its long, uniform, precision-machined aluminum tip. The longer aluminum tips are machined to be caliber specific and when coupled with highly refined AMP® bullet jackets, aggressive profiles and optimized boattails the result is enhanced drag efficiency across the board.

The materials, design and manufacturing techniques combine for the most consistent and accurate match bullets available. In addition to development projectiles that will shoot well in a variety of chambers, the Ballistic Development Group also designed the A-Tip™ bullets with the right balance between the center of gravity of the projectile versus the center of pressure to minimize in-flight drag variability.
