Mystery 105 tipped bullet at midway

[Dude270]

Anyone know anything about this bullet?

Factory Second 6mm, 243 Cal (243 Diameter) Bullets 105 Grain Polymer

MidwayUSA has just made a huge purchase of blemished bullets and we are passing the savings to our customers. Blemished bullets are bulk-packaged,...

Any info would be appreciated, thanks.

Either a typo or hornady is messing around with a 105 eldm/eldx/eld-vt, etc? I don't recall seeing anything about a tipped 105 from them off hand yet.

Could be the old tipped A-max that were discontinued. I believe those were 105's

Found some dusty bullets in the back of the warehouse? Maybe.

I bought a bunch of 105 blems back in the day. I will compare the part#

The amax has been gone a while so I'd be surprised if that was it.

The seem expensive compared to the 108 eld-m seconds they have as well. I might wind up getting 100 just to satisfy my curiosity.

Keep the ideas coming guys, thanks.

Secret Sierra 105 TMK project pre-producrion run?

A guy can dream, especially in the magical Christmas season.

That's what I hoped too but it's probably wishful thinking

The image looks like the computer models Hornady often displays.

One could hope! But like the last poster, the image looks like a Hornady image

Actually if I had to put money down on something, I'd guess they're actually 109 seconds. The customer reviews on the 109 seconds had a handful of early ones that said they were advertised as 105's, so at one point they had a mistake in the description. Maybe that description got used again by mistake.

Can find 109 firsts for that price if so.

I ordered some, I'll disclose my findings once they're in hand. Tip color should indicate manufacturer.

I have heard that some of Midway 's seconds are actually made for them.

Curious what they turn out to be

Online photo definitely seems like it's from Hornady. Maybe mislabeled 106's as mentioned above?

"sample photos" are poor representation on the seconds. I've observed the sample midway photo to have a carnalurre, and the shipped product was just a tmk.
