[QUOTE="Guest, post: 29635"] We're testing the Tooley tool to uniform meplats on a number of bullets at the USAMU. So far any loss in BC is miniscule -- all we're doing is uniforming the points and bullet overall length. We've tried it on 7mm Remington Short Mags, 6.5 x 284, and both 80 and 90 grain 5.56mm bullets. We machine rest test all ammo at 300 and 600 yards. We're moving our 1,000 yard concrete block and will get our 1,000 yard machine rest capability back in February. Groups are indeed shrinking slightly, and I think it's because the bullets are now more consistent length- and point-wise. [/QUOTE]
