[QUOTE="Greg Duerr, post: 804265, member: 32685"] I got a tip from Paul, from the Sierra Teck tip hotlline. I told him about my long throut on my .243 AI and the trouble I was having getting anything to shoot...... He told me that often times when you have a long throut you have a wide throut to .004-.005 over bullet diameter and when that happens you can not get boat-tail bullets to shoot. I bought some Flat Base 100gr Sierra Pro Hunters and loaded up with 44.0gr of H4350 44.5 and 45.0 That did it my groups went .404, .416, and .487 No boat tail bullet ever came close ...................... Thats more than enough for me . Now I plan on trying some 88gr Berger Match Varmint Flat base and see what happens......... I never would have thought that would make a difference ..................going from shooting 1.5 groups to .4............................now that's a huge improvment. Greg [/QUOTE]
