I was at the range today with another set of reloads and I learned a few things. Weighing brass does have a slight effect on removing fliers. Today I had stuff like 3 shots touching and 2 off to wherever they pleased. Without those fliers my groups would have been an average of .4-.5". With them my average is about .7" for both of my guns.
Is .7" a realistic maximum for performance, meaning will I ever do much better with my 2 factory rifles? I do get a lot of touching shots, but the fliers really hurt my groups.
What I'm trying to say is, would you guys be happy getting a max group size of .8" and usually getting somewhere .6-.7"?
Also, what would match primers and match brass do for my groups? More specifically, how much of an effect do match primers really give? A benchrest competitor i talked to told me to expect a difference, but how much?
