Thread: Ammo question

    You will be on the paper but like you said you will need to make minor adjustments. FYI My 30/06 with my Hornady handloads 180 grain spire point is 2" high at 100 yards. 180 Federal nosler partition premium is 1" high and 180 grain Remington "core-lokt" is 3" high. I've never adjusted the scope just different bullets, different powder, all different but still pretty close.

    The new ammo may group the same place, and then again it may not. It may be a slight change in point of impact (POI), and it may be a few minutes off. The only way to tell is to sight the gun in with the ammo. I have seen 1 minute of change between different lots of ammo of the same brand and load. Testing is the only way to tell for sure.
