Use Barnes bullets 
I dont know what the deal is but Ive tried so many loads in so many rifles using barnes bullets and could not get a decent group with them. The best I could ever get even at 50yds was about 3" and at 100yd was 4"
All other loads and bullets I have tried were doin 1" or less at 100yd all day.
Just my $1.248

Ok, truth be known that I only tried barnes bullets in 2 different guns. My browning .308 and my remington 700 .300 win mag. The .300 would do 2 to 2.5" at 100yd and the .308 would do 1" at 50 but that still isnt good enough for me because I average 1" at 100yd with all my other loads.
Yeah, I clean my guns very good after a trip to the range. They would shoot "OK" at faster velocities but I cant afford faster velocities because more powder is used and .300 mags aint easy on a lb of powder.

My 2 cents worth is the barnes x bullets are hunting bullets and id be plenty happy with 2 inch or less groups at 100 yards. If i was wanting benchrest accuracy I wouldnt be using those x bullets.
BC on the other hand those are some really impressive 200 yard groups.

The best bullets I have ever used as far as accuracy goes are the sierra gamekings, nosler ballistic tips, remington bronze points and speer grand slams. Too bad the speer's cost as much as they do.
