[QUOTE="Topshot, post: 257137, member: 13285"] I have noticed a similar thing with a .458 Win Mag. In that case a 500 grain bullet shot higher than a 350 grain bullet which is the opposite to what I would have expected. I put it down to barrel whip. I think it depends on where the end of the barrel is pointing on bullet exit as to where the bullets land. It may be a case of one bullet exiting at the top of the barrel flex and the other exiting at the bottom of the barrel flex. Try a different powder and primer combination in the 160 grain load to the 168 grain load and see what happens. [/QUOTE]
