[QUOTE="Gunner1, post: 887074, member: 74068"] I guess I'm looking for more of a "in general" answer. At $30+ per box of ammo, I just don't want to waste money on factory ammo that won't be as inherently accurate as something of a different bullet weight. For instance I bought two boxes of Barnes Vortex 180gr. rounds a few weeks ago because they were there. Right next to them on the shelf were boxes of that new Hornady American Whitetail in 150gr for about $12 less per box. I don't mind paying more for the ammo if it's going to be more accurate. In fact, I know the buzz on Federal GMM and can secure boxes of them at $52 a box. But I don't want to bother if they'll be inaccurate out of my rifle. The rifles main purpose is long range hunting but all shots would be under 600 yards. I hope I made this a bit clearer... [/QUOTE]
