[QUOTE="nralifer, post: 2733626, member: 94556"] There are two generalizations you can make about monos vs C&C. The latter are much softer and don’t penetrate as well at high speed impacts. Monos (all copper) bullets are etched by rifling where C&Cs “squeeze into the rifling. Our bullets generally will need a jump between 0.020-0.30”. They shoot 1/2 MOA right off the bat in the 6.8 Western that has tight clearances in the lead/ free bore portion of the throat. Typically from my guns I can get sub-MOA groups at those jumps. If not then I do 2 shot jump ladders at 0.010” increments starting 0.005” off the lands. I have one Proof carbon barrel in a 308 Win with a short throat that gives me more trouble than the other barrels though. [/QUOTE]
