Barrel throat depth question - Shilen

[LongRange]

id use the bullet you plan to shoot for your dummys and not worry about the seating depths of the others or if one bullet shoots better than the other...unless your a bench rest shooter just pick a bullet and tune it to shoot...i only shoot 2 brands of bullets berger hybrids and sierra match kings and in 9 or 10 different barrels both bullets would shoot better than 1/4moa at distance and 1 hole groups at 100yds and im not that great of a shot.

I will disagree with you. Anyone that can shoot one hole groups at 100 is a good shot.

At some point the rifle is accurate enough to do it, its then the shooter that is the limiting factor.

1/4 MOA at distances is world class.

I have been working at it for some time, I believe I am capable of something below 1/2 MOA. I believe the gun is good to 1/4. The other day I put 3 into a hole at 108 yds, the other two were off and I got 5/8. One of my "happy" groups. It tells me I can do better and not a bad group by my standards which is sub 5/8 MOA.

This is recent. I finally got a rifle setup that is capable of it and my technique has improved. Before it was 7/8 MOA.
