Uh, let me venture a prediction.

XTP = 4-5" group at 100

GD = 2 - 2.5"

When SL knows he's shooting a Speer, don't bet the other side. Gosh he loves that bullet. Speer isn't a publicly traded stock is it?

I did out anget shoot the other day... but because of Rule #1 - i decided not to shoot the Remington and ended up shooting my sidelock and bull shop conicals.... I hope uall read that the bullets were Bull Shops not Speers...Thought i did pretty good with it though 3.5" group outside to outside with 6 shots.... If I had not followed Yeoman's thoughts it would have been a 2.5" group - should have just shot the 3 shot group...

Thinking on going Saturday morning... the Remington is just sitting in the corner and ready to go, butI was actually thinking about shooting the Rengade 50 with a TC barrel....

But I have not forgotten...

SL - that was not a test of Bullshop versus Speer. We know who'd win that one.

I have shot both out of my 10MLII... both are accurate (MOA), I had to push the Gold Dots a grain faster then the XTP's to get them to group MOA. Which I don't mind having a little better speed from the Gold Dots... now I just need to use it on game!
