MOST ACCURATE BULLET IN THE WORLD

[WIB3]

In 6mm, shoot them side by side with the VT 103 automated. The VT’s are a lot cheaper. I bet if property done, the VT’s kick a—.

 

[WIB3]

At 1000 yds. Not 100.

I wish they would make a 6mm 65-68gr or a 112-118gr 30cal so we can really see the difference

Totally agree Dusty.

No offense, but I see one target, shot with one rifle. Post your last agg at a match, and I'll treat at Starbucks. I shot one 5-shot target at Kelbly's SS that measured .043" at 100yds during the SS. It was good for 17th (?) iirc that relay. I kept that target pinned to my reloading room for about 25 years. It finally fell on the floor, and my 3 year grandson stepped on it.

The only real test of anything, including the shooter; takes place shoulder to shoulder at a registered match.
Not one target, unless you get a prize for smallest group that relay.

Otherwise, I am with Dusty...

Five or six (I cannot remember) Hornady guys came to the 1000yd IBS Nationals and shot with us last year. They were all shooting Hornady bullets and all held their own. Real nice bunch that always donate a lot to the prize tables. Don’t quote me but I am 99% sure one of there guys shot the 2nd smallest or may have been the smallest group shot. I am pretty sure most were shooting the A-tips.

They are some nice guys and do some serious donating which i sure do appreciate.

I don't know who you are talking to, but I shot a six target LG agg of 5.38 at 1000 yds last October at the NBRSA regionals with Bart's Hammers. That was only good for third place. The gentleman who won shot a 4.94 with his own bullets. I was disappointed because on tuning day I managed three consecutive sub 2" 3-shot groups at 1000 yds. I guess the best conditions were on tuning day.....

It would indeed, be, as Grand Funk Railroad sang nearly half a century ago; "Some kind of wonderful..." if Hornady can and will build a match winner. We need more choices. Nosler too, for that matter.

I will admit, that I was born in Missouri. Well known as the "Show Me State...".

I'm watchin' this thread for info on the 285 gr 338 cal stuff, ... but GFR, ... man that made me chuckle!

Isn't that the truth!

Oh, how many times that target comes back with three and two or even four and one before the stars align and that one special group happens. That, no matter what else happened, is the one that we remember and the one that keeps us coming back (or spending a pile more money).

A match will also tell us whether these will blow up or not, that’s my main question now, the BC is real. If only 2-3 guys are shooting them though, that match won’t necessarily reveal their potential. As per my usual, I won’t sit on the pertinent info if they do blow up. The only brand of bullet I have never blown up in F-Class matches is Sierra, but it’s also the brand I’ve used the least. The 183’a have produced clean test targets over 2,400 FPS at 610 yards, though.

Thanks for your honest test data David. The only way to find diamonds in the rough is to have balls enough to look for them and not blindly follow the crowd like most people do.

I figured they would be on it. Doug and Tim I would trust....but that Ingram fellow.....

. ...exactly..!!

Just ordered 200 of the 176 A-tip to try in my 12 twist and compare to the juggernaut. Not sure if I will get them before this weekends practice/match day at 1000.

 

[Bill Norris]

Got 100 of the 176 gr. coming to try in my 24 " 11 1/4 Tw. .308

Wow I wish we could all shoot together some day. But this year doesn't look good for Matches. So I guess we are going to have to take everyone's word for all those great groups.
Matches is were it's at! all bullets are good if they work in your rifle.

Someone could bring one o those long range guns and some aluminum bullets to the Tack Driver this fall
300 meters oight to be a good judge

I'm sure you mean "machined aluminum tips" don't you .
300 meters? Is that a daily quota for the water meter reader?
Down here is 'Bama we dope it all in yards.
I got all my long-range sticks zeroed for 1,000 yards cuz! That's where the party gets started for them A-Tips! HAHAHAHA

 

[Tim Singleton]

I was just thinking some of the most accurate bullets in the world will be on the line this fall in SC
So if you are someone who thought that silvertip and their abilities were up to the challenge that would be a good place to make a splash!
