[QUOTE="green 788, post: 95069, member: 3781"] kraky, I don't plan on doing this test with neck turning, as I'm already getting the level of accuracy I need from my rifles. I don't compete in contests, I just use my guns for hunting and informal target shooting. I did, however, test .003" and less runout against .006-.008" runout with 55 grain Hornady VMAX's from my 22-250 Savage at 310 yards last year. Shot only seven of each though. I was amazed to see both groups were almost identically the same size--both just under MOA, around 3/4 IIRC. The low runout group won the group measurement by about 3/8" at that range, and it was only because one shot in the high group went a bit high and wide. I don't claim any definitive results from this, but I will say that the short and informal test opened my eyes up to how [i]little[/i] runout mattered with those bullets coming out of that rifle.
