Thanks!
I have BRed an AMU 1000 yard gun, and to get the full potential you had to work the brass.
I tried the Federal Premium and it just would not shoot.
I discovered that bullet shape and weight for the twist are critical, as is the bullet seating depth off of the lands. When I started preparing the brass properly, it got even better.
Turns out that once I found out what the rifle liked and followed all of the steps, if shot like a house on fire. If you get the right load for a particular rifle, and make it consistently, your shooting becomes the weakest link. All of my precision rifles are better shooters than I am.
