[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1106524, member: 10755"] Inherent accuracy is perceived, I really don't believe it is real. There are many cartridges that break most of the 'rules', such as belts, short necks and overbore capacities that are superbly accurate. Many people confuse efficiency, accuracy and precision, they are all different things, but vital to an accurate shooting system. The rifle also has to be considered, all of it's components must be within spec, any one aspect done poorly can turn ANY cartridge into a non shooter. Precision, the ability to shoot a string of bullets into a tiny group, is not inherent, it is HOW the cartridge is held to very tight tolerances with small variables that achieves this aspect in a well made system that allows this. Have you ever seen a rifle that no matter what prep or precision loading techniques are used, just will not shoot? lightbulb Cheers. gun) [/QUOTE]
