I just got done shooting my M44 Mosin using some Golden Bear ammo and no matter what I tried the accuracy was as bad as ANYTHING I've ever seen. I tried it with Bayonet extended, Bayonet folded, etc etc. Now I'm not the greatest shot in the world, but off of a bench I'm capable of shooting some pretty tight groups.
Anyway, I burned through 60 rounds of the stuff (185 grain bi-metal FMJ) and was really bummed. I came back and decided to pull a bullet to see what diameter it was and it mic'd out at .308 . . .so given that I can drop a .308 bullet through a .312 sizing die and it just falls to the floor . ..what kind of accuracy would you think you'd get? My guess is that the bullets weren't even being spun up . . . .
Just curious what your opinion was. I sure won't be buying anymore Golden Bear ammo
