[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3083619, member: 15054"] HHHMMM very interesting about the 80 gr bullet. So which one? I have 2 different 168 gr bullets for my .308 and one is very accurate with many loads and the other is not very accurate. The not very accurate is the higher BC bullet. Then 2 different 165 gr bullets in the 308 and one shoots excellent and the other is a dud both sierra game kings. Do not get me started on my 30-06 which I have tried 4 different 150gr flat base bullets in and only 1 was worth a darn and Hornady changed it. Thanks Hornady. NOT! The way to see if the 80 is more accurate would to do load work up.. say make loads 3 of each grain size and step them up in .3 gr steps like a ladder test and go shoot them. Take the 80gr and take a 100 gr and take a 90 gr and see what you get. 100 yards is too close.. 200 will tell the story. So which bullets? I shot the 87 gr V-max a lot in my .243 it is very accurate and kills very well. [/QUOTE]
