[QUOTE="bailey1474, post: 130304, member: 3249"] Rem2506, They shoot great. I have yet to shoot a 5 shot group over 2" @ 400 yds w/them. I really think under perfect conditions they will shoot 1" to 1.5". Mtsheep, [ QUOTE ] Stories like this are educational and informative, experienced l.r. hunters, such as yourself can save us “newbies” from a lot of grief by sharing your experience of both success and failure. [/ QUOTE ] I wouldn't say I'm an experienced lr hunter. Shooter maybe, but I only get apply it for about 2 weeks a year!! d-a, [ QUOTE ] you are not pushing them fast enough. bump that speed up 3-400 fps and they will expand well.
