[QUOTE="Eric Stecker, post: 445592, member: 8908"] Over the decades we have done a tremendous amount of testing. We recognize the there are certain things that are desired by the market so we worked to make them a part of our line. Walt decided a long time ago that one of the requirements of our testing is that we produce a result that is capable of 1/4 MOA precision (in an equally capable rifle). We tested plastic tips, non-lead core materials (everything you can think of) and every bonding process we could get our hands on. None of these tests produced a bullet that is capable of 1/4 MOA precision. Right or wrong this is one thing that we will stick to regardless of what is more desireable in the market. Berger = precision rifle bullet performance and until we can bond a bullet and make it 1/4 MOA capable we won't offer one in our line. For what it is worth, this is also the reason why we don't sell our culls or use second use (reclaimed) lead in our bullets. Many will debate that our culls out shoot many other bullets but we won't sell anything that is not match grade. Others believe that reclaimed lead (used by every other brand) does not affect precision. We don't believe this is true and we will go to every extreme to ensure best performance lot after lot.
