[QUOTE="davewilson, post: 115642, member: 4491"] i guess you seem to agree with me that these bullets need the right combination to shoot.you've listed some barrels they won't work in because they run a little small.yes match bullets work very well in them, but they'll also work in the other barrels you mentioned and even production quality barrels because they're soft enough to slug up into whatever size the bore is.a solid won't work if the bore is too snug and they also won't work if it's just a little loose.again because they won't slug up.this to me means they need a very precise fit. as far as accuracy goes every one on here has heard about them being accurate.i'm referring to Lost River bullets.every year there's rumor of someone with LR bullets gonna clean up at Williamsport, 1k, or at some of these mile shoots.every time i talk to some of the competitors it just doesn't happen.i think they'll shoot very accurately out of the "right" barrel.(perfect fit [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]) to my knowledge it hasn't been proven they'll outshoot jacketed lead bullets at any range. would love to see a great hunting, high BC bullet in 375 that would shoot lights out. i believe in solids for hunting but not for long range hunting.i dought if there's anyone on here that believes they have the accuracy or the terminal performance needed for long range. i'm not trying to flame, i'm actually very interested in your reports and speciffically anything you have with those 375 bullets.can a fellow get ahold of those 350 gr projectiles or do you need a security clearance with George's signiture or something?
