    Yes your probably right, I'm going to join my local long range so just want to get it a little better than what they are now. Hoping that the Forster die which is optimized for VDL will be a bit more accurate.

    Read an article that mentioned that if not central the bullet will head down the barrel slightly deeper on one side in the riffling than the other which is fine until it leaves the barrel then it will tend to move in space put off by its centre of mass asymmetry causing a wider group at the end. Just want to eliminate a bit of this.
