[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 497516, member: 13833"] VERY good read! I found this to be true when I tested some of my bullets WITH and WITHOUT, ballistic tips. They were 195 grain .308 8s spitzers. The original meplat was as tight as I could squeeze down my dies. I didn't measure the meplat at the time (wish I would have) but it was considerable, probably over .100"? I then added a sharp pointed tip and fired away at 950 yds. The difference in group height was over 20"! Made a believer out of me:D.......Rich [/QUOTE]
