[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1358318, member: 30902"] Unless you're buying a purpose built LR Rig the factory is building them for average shooters, average hunters, and average ranges and the bullets that average hunters and shooters are shooting. You can't expect any of the big guys turning out tens or hundreds of thousands of rifles a year for the guys shopping at Academy or WalMart to adjust their whole line to suit the less that 1% of hunters in the category we fall in. You can't make a Toyota Landcruiser into a Ferrari nor a Ferrari into a Landcruiser and if you try to, you're bound for disappointment. Even five years ago the super heavy for caliber, super high BC bullets many are shooting today didn't exist and we couldn't see them on the horizon. Until you're ready to rebarrel you just have to limit your expectations and bullets to those that will work in your factory rifle. I've seen a whole lot of folks here frustrate themselves to no end wasting a tremendous amount of time and money trying to work up accurate loads with bullets that simply cannot be stabilized in the quest for the ultimate high BC hunting bullet. We can't change the physics and we just have to accept it. [/QUOTE]
