Default RE: Problem Sighting In a New Rifle

glad to hear you got it worked out, you can keep trying different bullets and see the differences. I shoot a .243 and have found out that Hornady's ( 100 gr.) have the same ballistics as remington and winchesters 100 gr. but shoot flatter. My gun is sighted with the hornady's at 200 yds any other 100 gr bullet shoots about 2 1/2 inches low at 200 yds. the 100 gr. hornady's shoot as flat as 80 gr remingtons or winchesters but Hold a better pattern because they buck the wind better than the 80. gr. Try some hornady's I am a believer in them.
