Just some random thoughts here. With a rifle, what's more important, bullet? Load, Shooter (trigger control etc), equipment? Powder?
Here's the thought - with a perfect shooter - all things being perfect. The load is tuned to the bullet and the rifle - when it's fired the bullet leaves at exactly the mid point of the barrel ocsillation. The next shot is the same. These two bullets should hit the same point. They usually do.
Now the laod is varied - the bullet leaves at some other point in the barrel oscillation, let's say on the way up. The next shot will leave at the same upward point - they should hit in the same place - they don't.
Same things with other variables - they should react the same yet the bullets don't always hit in the same spot.
I'm amazed that they ever do!
Any thoughts?
