[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 107561, member: 5302"] Nobody at Sierra Bullets verifies what you said; not even Rich M. You might send your address (email or house) to Rich M. at Sierra then talk and get your stuff together. Something's amiss with what you said and the two of you can easily figure it out. You don't have to post the results. That aside, Sierra Bullets has caught people from time to time who purchased seconds, hand picked through them, then take them to gunshows and sell them as "Bulk Firsts" but they were not. A box of them could easily have bullets from different pointing dies. Some seconds are polished and some are dull and still have sizing lanolin on them. And the buyer wouldn't know this or suspect anything until he made some precice measurements. This may well have been what happened and would easily explain why base-to-ogive spread was as great as you (and another or two) mentioned. This sneaky hoodwinkery is something Sierra Bullets has nothing to do with. Where did you and others buy these 500-bullet boxes at and who from? You should report this to Sierra instead of me.
