A couple of weeks ago I put a new bushnell 4200 2.5x10 on my 300 Weatherby. The first time I went to the range, it didn' t shoot worth crap! I had also gotten some of the new 150 gr. Hornady Interbonds. Everything I' ve heard about Hornady, as well as ballistic tips, have been great as far as accuracy is concerned. But the best group I could get was around 6 inches. I figured the scope had to be loose, or there was something wrong with it since with Remington Cor-lokts I had always shot 1" -1.5" groups.

Anyway, go to the range yesterday, same results. So then I decided to try some different ammo, Federal 180 gr. Groups instantly back down to 1.5" . I never dreamed there would be that dramatic of difference between ammo.

So a couple of tips hoping to save some of you time and frustration - only change one thing at a time, always try several different types of ammo, and expensive ammo doesn' t always mean more accurate. I' m thinking the Hornady' s were too light and too fast for my rifle.

P.S. I' ve got about 50 Hornaday Interbonds; 150 gr 300 weatherby that I' ll sell at 1/2 price if anyones interested.
