Box O' Truth #49 - Damaged Bullet Accuracy and the Box O' Truth - Page 3
All shooting will be at 100 yards.
Here's a look at the 100 yard target for those of you that may have forgotten just how far that really is.
Here's the resulting control group.
It measured about 1 3/8 inches.
Not great for this rifle, but these are not match bullets.
We then have 5 rounds with the nose of the bullets smashed flat, as if they had been bouncing into the front of the magazine for several deer seasons.
And the results.
They went into a 3 ¾ inch group.
The next group will be the ones where we took a pair of side cutter pliers and just snipped off the exposed lead from the point of the bullets, and did so at an odd angle.
