[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 649363, member: 505"] Reports of poor accuracy with Cutting Edge bullets are very unusual. I have tested Cutting Edge bullets at length and they are as accurate or more accurate in every rifle I have tested them in than any hunting bullet I have ever shot. The key reason is they are perfect bullets cut individually on cnc machines. This makes the cost high but for people who want the best and spend quite a lot on hunts bullet cost by comparison is so small it is not worth mentioning. I put a mic on some Berger long range bullets and the measurements in the critical front area of the bullet varied considerably where in comparison to the Cutting Edge bullets which were exact bullet to bullet. This is not a throw off on the Bergers which are as good a lead core bullet as there is made. It is just the difference between an expensive custom individually made bullet vs a mass produced lead core bullet. The key to the Cutting edge is they are not as fincky and critical to load for as the extreme ogive design of bullets such as the Berger which takes a lot of testing to find the proper seating depth where they shoot good. I know berger is working hard to correct this problem with the new hybrid design bullet which is good to see. [/QUOTE]
