[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1256482, member: 24284"] ++ for AZshooter and Feenix. Bullets don't always have to "touch the rifling" or be "jammed" for best accuracy. It is a myth that needs to 'go away'. If you want to extend the throat on your barrel, because you have the magazine length to do so, I'd extend in increments, allowing for the wear to the throat that will come from use. I'll go one step further and suggest you try a different brand of bullet, like a Sierra game bullet. I've personally never had much luck with Bergers, although some have. Don't get hung-up on one brand of bullet. [/QUOTE]
