I don't reload, but I have noticed, how much variance a hunting bullet has from another simply by looking closely at the bullet, usually the tips of them.

Lead cores etc...are all different usually, similar, but different.
Shouldn't all bullets be identical? maybe some variance doesn't make much of a different on flight, but I would think a little variance on a bullet would make a HUGE difference on bullet flight and accuracy.

I've shot everything from noslers, a frames, core lokts, all sorts, never any match grade target ammo, but I assume thats just what match great is, much more identical bullets, in shape, and weight.

So my question, who makes idential hunting bullets?


There is an excellent article in the most recent Handloader Magazine regarding exposed lead tip bullets that are damaged. Lots of testing and surprising results
