[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1955708, member: 8873"] What he is saying is that due to the manufacturing processes and such no 2 bullets will be 100% the same. This is an ever so slight difference and really only matters at long distance. You can even look at two Berger OTM or Sierra Matchkings from the same box and see the difference in the tips (one of the places the dimensions will be different). That is why guys trim the meplats or tip these bullets for comp/target shooting, to help make them more consistent. Doc, What have you seen as far as turned bullets? Some of what I’ve read say more consistent that cup-n-core bullets swagged in dies. [/QUOTE]
