[QUOTE="chessman, post: 33351, member: 2451"] Not bad! There is definitely an advantage to using heavier bullets for long range work. From a rough calculation, that load should produce only a 4” variation at 1000 yards (everything else held consistent). I agree that there are more factors to cause a miss than just the ammo. My weakness is in reading the mirage – but I’m getting better. I just figure that when you stack all the other variables together on top of my lousy shooting I really miss big. I intend to be able to say with pride that I’ve built as perfect a rifle/ammo combo as there ever was, and that I missed because I need to improve me. [/QUOTE]
