Have not seen them in stores locally, Mr. Bassett showed me a box when I picked up my mount from him. As the box says 168 open tip match, but did not specify whether they are SMKs or otherwise.
It's been for sell since 2008, I have gone through three cases of it and it's like candy in my NM M1A SixTGunr.
I have been posting it here since 2009.

I shoot 3 boxes of it through my Loaded. For some reason it grouped right about 2 in @ 100yrds compared to my reloads, but just as tight. seems like good stuff to me. burns clean also.
Indeed I have. Loads of it at Camp Perry last season. There were good deals and not so good deals on ammo there. I passed on this M1A stuff in favor of Gold Medal at $18.00 per box. Just my .02 cents. Good luck and good shooting!
