[QUOTE="Gunpoor, post: 1323608, member: 8358"] I just stated that my 243 would not stabilize bullets lighter than 58 grains. Now I only tried one bullet under 58, and that was a 55 grain Hornady and they began to shoot better the harder I pushed them but ran into excessive pressure at 1.5 or 2 grains over max load, when the group tightened up to 1.5 MOA. I think these light for caliber bullets were jumping the rifling and when I pushed them harder it made them obturate the barrel grooves a little better. If your hands on experience differs from mine please feel free to expound on your findings. BTW,Mike C.R., do you even shoot a 243Win? [/QUOTE]
