I think quality from end to end helps a lot with consistency. From my experience (not very much) and reading about everyone Else's experiences I believe finding and shooting the right load for that gun is the key. I was ready to get rid of my Omega when the FPB's came out. I had decided that the FPB's were going to be the last bullets I try in it and if they don't work out, it's gone. It does shoot sabot well but I can't hunt with sabots in Colorado.

Well, after finding what it likes which is FPB's, 85gr. BH209, and STS primers, I'll never get rid of that gun unless Hornady quits selling FPB's or BH is no longer available.
