The Lehighs are nice but......at just 5/8" difference in group size at 200 yards that ain't enough to justify buying them.
Anyway, that is some nice shooting. I like that stand too. I have one similar made out of 2x4s and 3/8" threaded rod. But I like yours better. I've also found that those threaded rods don't stay very straight when you hit one square with a .58 caliber PRB during sighting in.
I would hope that you are not just judging the value of a bullet by it accuracy. Terminal Performance carries a bigger value for me than just accuracy.
Also and I am not sure about other places but bullets seem to have take a leap in price lately. A month ago I bought a box of Sierra .452x300's for just over $20 today buying that same bullet the price has jumped to $31. A box of Hornady .308x150 gr. bullets is $44... Geez I am glad I am not reloading anymore!
