[QUOTE="sp6x6, post: 623235, member: 21869"] The meplat is the tip of the bullet, in match type bullets with full copper jackets, this area is prone to difference just from forming and shipping.They make a tool to uniform. The area you want to or are checking is the ogive, radius area between tip and bearing. I am surprised that your bullets are off that much, but know you know the biggest source of your problem.Now if you are trying to shoot minimum distance from lands this could be a problem, because you could go from off to jammed.But if you are well out then not a issue.
