[QUOTE="Howland, post: 1364060, member: 103509"] Wow! Thanks [USER=85987]@Capt RB[/USER], that was an eye opener! I'm not sure if that has any effect on the observation that [USER=101677]@Canhunter35[/USER] made in the OP because in your response you mentioned lead, but I'm glad I saw that. I picked up a new AR-10 and topped it with a rather expensive (to me if not other folks here) scope and 20 MOA mounts because I just joined a club that has 600 & 1,000 monthly matches. I had been planning on starting load development with the Nosler Ballistic Tip 180 gr. because it has decent BC and has performed well on game in my .30-06. I do know I tried one projectile with a ceramic tip insert (if memory serves me right), although I bought it for the molybdenum coating. I got good groups but the Noslers were a little bit better so that's what I went with. Hmmm. That's the kind of learning that I came here for. Nice contribution to member knowledge. Thanks again.
