[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 413542, member: 2736"] Mikecr. Doubting something is healthy and sometimes leads to a better solution. To help answer your doubt an example of if it "Should" help accuracy is simple= Take a 100 grain bullet and remove 1 grain so there is a 1% difference between it and the 100 grain and shoot both. at 100 or 200yards drop should be somewhere around 1% difference (Not even noticeable in most rifles) Now do the same thing at 1000 yards and 1 % difference can mean the difference in winning or losing. Now bump the distance to 1500+Yards and 1% can be significant. I agree that It may not be enough for a lot of hunters That normally shoot less than 300 yards But when you start adding the 1%s together for all of the components it can make a difference even at closer ranges and simply wont be dependable at Long range. Even the best ammo can't make a good shooter. It takes Good consistent ammo,good rifles,equiptment,Good weather and a good shooter to make it all come together. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
