Remington corelokts shot worse in my gun than Barnaul steel case crap. You wouldn't think it was possible.

So far we have heard of at least one batch of Amaxs that were not overly consistent and one batch of Bergers.
I'd bet there is someone out there who has had a bad batch of Sierra and Lapua projectiles too.

I think it's just inevitable that there will be some bad batches of anything a company produces, and you have to hope like hell it's not you who get's it.

If you can test the two groups you have made at a decent range, at least 300m and there is little to no obvious variation then I wouldn't worry about it.
If it did make a difference, well I'd consider my options then lol. Perhaps contact Hornady and find out what variation there should be.
