    I was wondering why my ammo was shooting .5mil flatter at 725m than previously used. So I tried it up and shot it at a match.
    208 eldm in a 300 winmag. Die was set the same. New batch of powder and projectiles.
    Hornady have changed the bullet slightly. Heavier and longer and different nose. I used hornady bullet comparators using every calibre one in the pack to map the nose of the bullet.
