Hornady groups left?

[jtmoose]

Just got back from the range trying a bunch of factory match 308win loads; the Hornady loads grouped about 1-2 moa left except the 178g ELD-X precision hunter. Why would one manufacturer consistently shoot to the left but no others? I have a 1:10 barrel and I was thinking it might be because the Superformance line is loaded about 150-200 fps faster than the rest. Here are all the loads I shot:

Federal Premium Match 168 & 175gr
Nosler Custom Match 168 & 175gr
Hornady Superformance Match 168gr A-Max & ELD
Hornady Precision Hunter 178gr ELD-X
Norma Match 168gr

Thanks for your wisdom!

That is not uncommon. Most manufacturers have their own jackets which can act differently in a barrel. Not to mention other design factors........Rich
