Thank you for the response! Perhaps G.T. will step-up, also; otherwise, I'll try to get in touch with him.
The only bullet I've been able to find of the proper diameter and (nearly) weight is the Hornady .309" 90 gr. HP, which I will try, but I'd still like to locate some proper FMJ types. FWIW, the Lapuas, while nominally .309" diameter, actually measure just under .308", and have to be heavily crimped to prevent telescoping into the case.
