Just got a new lot of 22 cal 52 gr bullets, and they do not shoot as well as the previous lot. Measured base to ogive and getting .322 to .333 difference. Planning to shoot seregated bullets to see if that improves accuracy. What is the recommended difference when measuring base to ogive?

When you measure bullets the measurment can be scewed, I always try to wiggle the bullets into place, to get the most accurate measurment. You will find in a typical box there will be 2 or 3 ogives that the bullets will fall into. seperate the bullets into piles by ogive, and the you are fine.
