Yesterday at the range, shooting to compare from five years ago:
Center – fouling and sighters, plus one round with damaged meplat Still, .763”.
Upper left – Hornady 140 ELD Match. Cases sorted and bullets weighed. .459”.
Upper right – Nosler Competition 140 HPBT. .281”. Yes, that is three shots.
Lower left – Hornadys, again, but unsorted brass and loaded ages ago. The flyer puts it at 1.033”, but .226” without.
Lower right – My last two Hornady 140 SSTs from the bullet shortage during the Plandemic; they were all I could find at the time. .742”.
I think I’m going to write to Ruger to tell them that this 5 year old rifle, with over 3,000 rounds through it, still shoots well.
