I've had a long standing suspicion that a cannelured bullet isn't as precise (group size) as the same smooth bullet. The two bullets I'm questioning are .224 55 gr. VMax and 68 gr. Hornady HPBT but wonder if the HR group has experience with others as well.
Thats an “apples to oranges” comparison. If you were really wanting to see if the cannelure itself was the difference, you would need non cannelure bullets and a cannelure tool.
This way you could test the exact same bullet with and without.
That said, I don’t crimp loads I shoot for precision, so I have never personally side by side tested.
