[QUOTE="Dalyup, post: 2286183, member: 25785"] +1 for me I built an AR for my dad a few years ago with an Oly Lower and a Gun Show special upper and barrel. He scoped it and put thirty or so rounds through it and said, "the barrel is no good, it won't zero or group". I took the gun and shot my reloads through it and was shooting jagged holes at 100 yds. He was using some wolf ammo he had ordered. I took a couple of boxes of the wolf ammo and sure enough it wouldn't shoot for anything. I pulled all the bullets from a box of the wolf ammo, and found that none of the bullets weighed within .5 of a grain and actually had some of them that were over 2 grain diff. Then I weighed all of the powder from the rounds I pulled and the weights were way off from oned to another. Over 2 grain difference from least to most. [/QUOTE]
