[QUOTE="AJ Peacock, post: 138744, member: 4885"] Here is a thread that talks about segregating bullets. [url="http://longrangehunting.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=115532&page=&fpart=1&vc=1"]http://longrangehunting.com/ubbthreads/s...part=1&vc=1[/url] Also, do a search on '+base +ogive +bearing +surface' for last 2 years and you will see a number of other threads that talk about it. Essentially what I have gleaned from reading these posts is to sort by both Base to Ogive and by bearing surface. Sort by .001" for each grouping. Then choose bullets that weigh the same and have the same meplat (or uniform them). This will give you as good of bullets as you can have. This level of sorting is less important from 800yards in, and many here say it isn't important until well over 1000yds. Hope this helps, Don [/QUOTE]
