[QUOTE="WildernessBob, post: 2339784, member: 111062"] If you can get it - use different ammo. What am I talking about? I'm an old fart hunting with either a Weatherby vanguard 270 or a Ruger mark IV 30-06 with kill shots ranging from 75 to 150 yds. I am using sierra game changers this year but a couple years back I took 4 boxes of Winchester superX ammo to the range(2 BX each) Also 2 boxes of Hornady SST 30-06 + .270 and some Remington Core-Lokt .270. After setting up the zero at 50 yards with some Federal BTHP we started shooting the Winchester superX. We were asking the the heck is going on. We were both all over the place with the 30-06 grouping maybe 4" and the .270 was grouping at best 3" ...this was at 50 yards. After ten shots we both put away the superX and it's sitting in the ammo box 4 years later. Both rifles seem to do well with the Core-Lokt at 100 yards. The .270 like the SST.. What all this points to is the rifles are all different. What my rifles likes maybe won't work for your rifle well. And I am only showing the results of close range stuff. If I'm not tack driving at 100 yards, it not working for me [/QUOTE]
