I was extremely disappointed with my Savage 243 today. I admit, it wasn't the best day for shooting. Before I left the wind was fairly light but after arriving and shooting I believe it got up to 30 MPH at times. I don't think a steady wind would affect group size but it will affect POI. Even allowing some for the wind variables I think it should have done better. It was a 100 gr Speer Grand Slam with 40 grains of 4350. It has done better but never has shot very good. The 223 wasn't anything to brag about either. Best group was about .78 MOA, which isn't horrible and I believe the 52 grain bullet would be more affected by variable winds. Do lighter bullets normally shoot better with a 243 or a different powder? Also, on the 223, I am driving to Lincoln tomorrow and getting heavier bullets for the 223, 68 and 69 grain Hornady and Sierra along with 1# of CFE 223 and Benchmark. Sound like something that has potential, or any suggestions?
