Some Comparison Measurements of new 6mm bullets

I had a couple hours to measure some new bullets that I have accrued over the off-season for a couple Dasher barrels that I hope to tune up for midrange Fclass next year. Using my Sinclair bullet measuring stand (ogive to base), I set the first bullet to 0.000" then proceeded to measure the rest and label based on the length. I compared 100 bullets of the new 105g Nosler RDFs, 110g SMKs, 115g DTAC RBT and compared to my control- 103g Vapor Trails. Here is how they all stacked up.

105g Nosler RDF
-0.001" -7
0.000" -12
0.001" -11
0.002" -12
0.003" -18
0.004" -40

110g SMKs
-0.001" -6
0.000" -50
0.001" -38
0.002" -6

115g DTAC RBT
0.000" -8
0.001" -70
0.002" -22

103g Vapor Trail
-0.001" -18
0.000" -68
0.001" -14

Purely for information dispersal, no arguments being made.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks for reading.

Thanks for the report... Good info !.!.!
Looks to me like all need qualified, just that there will be more piles with some then others.
But does seem to me like the more perfect a bullet is made, the more consistent they are to each other, with better odds of success.
