[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 637836, member: 5302"] I'm one who doesn't think sorting bullets by virtually any measureable feature makes much difference, except for one. That's balance. Most bullets are unbalanced by some tiny amount. You've got to spin them at least 30,000 rpm in a collet spun by a motor which is connected to something that senses the centrifugal forces caused by unbalance. Those with perfect balance will shoot the most accurate. I've shot enough sub 1/2 MOA 15 to 20 shot groups at 800 and 1000 yards with unsorted bullets to feel this way. However, if someone feels their tests prove otherwise, then they should continue sorting bullets by whatever feature they choose. But I suggest folks not start sorting bullets until all the ones right out of the box print no worse than 1 MOA at 800 yards or further; and that's with at least 15 shots per test group. [/QUOTE]
