[QUOTE="longrangehunterII, post: 785489, member: 61185"] I've noticed that as well, and who wants to find a bullet stuck in the barrel and gun powder all over the inside of your action when out in the field and/or some huge pressure spike that can happen with bullets jammed into the lands The only time I'll place bullets into the lands is for fire forming brass in an improved chamber. The rifles I use aren't Bench Rest guns but hunting guns that would fall into the hunter bench rest category. I do and have taken some long shots at game animals, but I have too much respect for the "what if " to shoot beyond 600 yards on a living animal. I do shoot steel targets I have further then that. Even today at 600 yards I made a first round hit, missed one, hit it again, missed twice and then hit it almost dead center on the last round sent. 50% success.... not acceptable on a big game animal if you wound it, who cares if you miss? Anyway, thanks Ross for the info. Enjoyed hearing from you as well. [/QUOTE]
