[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 37348, member: 2852"] I am currently trying to hit my steel 15" gong at 1 mile with my 6.5-.284, and I am shooting Berger 140 vld bullets at just a touch over 3100 fps. I noticed that even though the Bergers are great bullets, the ogive length varies on them about .002-.004 on bullets of the same lot, and when I've been shooting them, I have to segregate them into rows of same length or I get 5 to 10 feet of vertical displacement at 1760 yards! Has anyone else ever run into this??? It doesn't really seem to make all that much difference at 1000 yards, but you guys shooting a little farther with the .338 might be able to help me. I'm just curious. thanks! -goodgrouper [ 11-30-2004: Message edited by: goodgrouper ] [/QUOTE]
