[QUOTE="MontanaMarine, post: 847304, member: 268"] Those bullets were happy campers at 2900 fps. Sub-moa accurate. That's not a fluke, that's a stable and accurate. If stability was close to the edge, things would typically improve with more velocity. The way everything fell apart at 3000 fps, just doesn't make sense for harmonics, or marginal stability. It'd be interesting to know what's going on though, whatever the cause may be. Nose slump is the only thing that comes to my mind that seems logical. I suppose if that is the case, there will be more accounts similar to this as more of these bullets get used. I'd never even heard of nose slump until it started happening with the early Berger 300gr .338" when driven at warp speed. Seems Berger had to tweak the nose a bit, and got things sorted out.
