[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3071618, member: 15054"] Very nice. Yep that is what to expect. I actually took factory loaded ammo and shot some 5 shot groups from a variety of them and then took another 5 from the boxes of each and took them apart and and measured everything and stuck them back together with NO neck crimp and I brushed the neck ID of all of them. The groups shrank. I then took 5 of the 55gr Zombie max and seated them longer where my gun liked the 55gr bullet seated to and this greatly improved the group. Bunch of little changes made the difference. One great thing i noticed with factory ammo was when removing bullets with inertia hammer is some just did not want to come apart and from the same box some would only take a couple wacks. Inconsistent neck tension. This is why i experimented with them in the first place. I just had to know what made most factory stuff so inaccurate. Powder and bullet weights and measures were very good from the factory stuff. just came down to the neck and OAL. [/QUOTE]
