[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 554984, member: 30671"] My .375 H&H is the only custom I have that literally shoots everything. Factory 300 gr Silvertips regularly into 0.5 @ 100 yards. Chronographing loads one day it put 20 rounds from 235gr X bullets to 350gr Barnes originals into a 1" hole. Most of the others will shoot reliably to .5-.75 with ammo they like. There are so many configurations possible that expectations may need to be tempered a bit. The point made about bullets is a good one, I worked with a couple of different .358 Ackley Improved Magnums that bullets available severely limited potential. Especially the 1-12" twist. If my brass comes in as promised I can start finding a load for my .338 RUM, and I'm expecting to reach that .5-.75 mark with a little work. Again my experience is with sporter weight rifles chambered for magnum cartridges. [/QUOTE]
