[QUOTE="greenejc, post: 2054566, member: 60453"] You are entirely correct. And I only need a 1 moa group or maybe a 1.5 moa group to put a Whitetail down at 350 yards. I can get that with any of the bullets I mentioned. With the Sierras and the Noslers, I can get inside 1 moa pretty easily with my 30-06's and very easily with the varmint weight barrel on my .308. I could probably refine the groups more, but that's good enough for anything I'm going to shoot inside 600 yards. With the rifles I can afford, I'll never achieve perfection, but perfection is the enemy of good enough. If I can group inside 6 inches at 600 yards, that's in the kill zone. I've used CoreLokt bullets in all my .308 bore rifles, from the 300 winmags to the 308 Win. They've never been the most accurate, but they've always been within 1.25" at 100 yards when I was careful at reloading them, and when I started using them(on a budget) they were about 1/2 to 2/3 the cost of everyone else's bullets. I could afford a lot of them, which gave me a lot of practice. I once hit a doe at 138 lazed yards right between the eyes with a 180 grain CoreLokt fired from a Ruger M77MKII in 30-06. That was a cold bore shot. Most of the cold bore shots with this bullet tended to be within 1" at 100 yards. I patterned them over several days. [/QUOTE]
