[QUOTE="4xforfun, post: 241285, member: 9172"] First.....you DO shoot groups...just 3 shot groups. Thats great. Second.....It sounds like you do actualy have a true LR setup, and know how to use it......I'll bet you got there by shooting groups. Once you are where you are, I will admit that groups are just waisted time and money....EXCEPT FOR GETTING YOUR ZERO. Third.... and MORE importantly...you take it to the next level.....You KNOW where you COLD gun hits on the first shot.....somthing that you obviously practice a bunch....GOOD ON YOU. I think that this is one of the most important factors in any LR setup. When I finalize my zero I wait 1/2 hour between shots in the group so I have a cold bore zero. Forth....my Benchrest career is just 6 months old....PURE ROOKIE. My LR hunting career is more than 25 YEARS old. My question to you is....Hornady, Berger, Lapua...ect are comming out with new LR .338 bullets.......are you going to try them? I know you have a GREAT setup, but it sounds like the BC on some of these pills will be SICK, from what I have gathered. Aren't you just a little curious about these new bullets?? [/QUOTE]
