[QUOTE="jrock, post: 1831602, member: 78569"] Been there. Found its best to sell the gun. I've spent over $300 into trying to force a gun to shoot well. Not worth it for a $500 gun. That money would have been better spent on a better quality gun in the first place. If the gun likes corelocks and nothing else and you want to shoot something else then you are not a compatible match. BTW, I think corelock bullets are great. I have found that some guns like certain shaped bullets better than others. Flat base bullets usually shoot better. If you find a bullet with a similar shape as the corelocks it may shoot well. I have a .243 in which I tired 4 different brands of 100 grain SPBT bullets. Only one shot well. On closer inspection, the shape of the boat tail, bearing length, etc was different enough to matter. As far as finding a box off the shelf that shoots better than all your hard work, that's a tough pill to swallow. But so it goes. [/QUOTE]
