BLR takedown: to improve groups

nord-partizanen said:
Given my low volume shooting and lack of spare time I can't justify getting into reloading. As you can see from my message from Aug 24, 2024 I managed to obtain 1moa accuracy from my TD SS .308.
The ammo was Fed ELD-X 178gn.
Another good ammo which lets me obtain about same results is Norma Whitetail 150gn.
Also, I was shooting these tests using bipod while sitting on the ground or laying down on my belly, no table, pillows, sand bags etc... On a wild range. It is to say not very comfortable or relaxing way.
So, 1moa is already good enough for me. On this I call it "done".
Thanks

I have also found Federal 150 grain copper to be very accurate in 4 different 308s.
 
The only copper bullets which I tried were Winchester Copper Impact 150gn .308
These didn't group well for my TD SS.
Also, as far as I understand, copper bullets of same weight are usually of longer body. This makes their tail sitting deeper inside the case. This is yet another variable. Well, it still works OK for many people, but I don't want to take risks, spend money and try again, etc.
