[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1731475, member: 1521"] You'll never get me to agree that doing something wrong is better than doing nothing. Be sure to 'shoot-sort' those you intend to cull purely by weight. There is another common shortcut which is analogous: sorting bullets Base to Ogive. Folks do this, then ask all around what the hell it means. It means nothing in itself.. It doesn't collect as separate the information needed to act on. That being base diameter, boat tail length, bullet diameter, bearing length, ogive radius, ogive length, meplat diameter, and weight. With this you could calculate BC differences, which is all that matters in it. But that is too difficult for most, including competitors, so they rationalize that picking one or two easy parts of it are better than nothing. I say don't act on things until you actually have needed information, to know that what you're doing is correct. And you shouldn't be doing things like this without the understanding needed to anticipate right from wrong. Stop tail chasing [/QUOTE]
