Atlas, shoot a couple groups from 35-40-45 yds, and then let's talk!!!! At 25 yds, you can do that, ante up the yardage, and things start getting a little hairier. While to some extent I'll agree with you, I've shot groups with Blazers and Duravanes in a mixed batch, and had similar results with both, I don't think shooting something that weighs 50 extra grains is going to fly overly close once you get out a bit in range.

My choice of 25 yards was simply because most deer are shot within this range...........pretty much the whole point I guess. Of course flaws will be magnified at farther ranges but since wehardly ever encounter those ranges when we hunt I didn't see how it applied.
