Has anybody used these? If so, what were results like and what powder/primer combos have you used?

In any type of fight, & especially gun fights, there are no winners ..... just varying degrees of losers. The only fight you win is the one you never get into.

I haven't used the one's pictured, but have used the Privis in 308 & 7mm BTHP 168 grain. Accuracy is fine @ 100 yds, but the design of the bullet, at least the two I tried, was such that I had to seat the bullets much deeper than usual or the bullet would hit the barrel lands. Wasn't a problem with the 308 Win or 7 Rem Mag, but could cause a problem if you have to do that in a 223.GOA Member & SAF Life Member -
I can't imagine that you would have a problem with these bullets hitting the lands if you are seating these to magazine depth (AR15). Unless it's a VLD or has a long secant, it probably has an ogive/secant similar to to the 75gr Hornady BTHP or the Sierra/Nosler 77gr BTHP. But, I'm just assuming since I never seen these before in person.
