Description
Give your 100-grain load-development project a clearly defined starting point
You are trying to learn what your rifle will do with a carefully assembled 100-grain load. That work becomes more useful when the bullet is identified by its complete construction rather than caliber and weight alone.
This Scorpion combines a low-drag hollow-point nose with a flat base. It gives the precision-minded .243 / 6mm handloader a direct component around which to tune seating depth, cartridge overall length and the rest of the loading system.
This listing contains 50 component bullets. Cases, primers, powder and loaded ammunition are not included. The bullets are hand swaged in small batches, made to order and normally ship within seven business days.
What this bullet helps you accomplish
The design removes ambiguity from the starting point. You know the weight, diameter, nose form and base form before development begins. The 50-count package supports a focused test cycle in which the handloader can assemble, measure and evaluate a rifle-specific load.
Choose this version when you want the Scorpion hollow point in its low-drag, flat-base form. The Scorpion ULD flat-base hunting bullet serves the hunting-designated assignment; the Scorpion ULD rebated-boat-tail version serves the project built around that base geometry.
Why buy the Gold Country Scorpion
Gold Country makes exact, hard-to-find bullet configurations for handloaders who need more information than a commodity catalog provides. This is a named architecture, hand swaged in a useful quantity and supported by a product page that tells you where it belongs in the family.

Let the finished load establish performance
The hollow point and low-drag profile describe the design; they do not establish accuracy or terminal behavior on their own. Use current published jacketed-bullet data for the exact cartridge and weight. Verify seating depth, cartridge overall length, chamber fit and function, then evaluate the finished load in the rifle and conditions for which it is intended.
