My tikka will do 1.5 MOA at best with the 168 LRABs, but will routinely do .75 or less with the 168 VLD "hunting" Bergers.

I killed a bull at 480ish a few weeks ago with the Berger, but only got 38 grains of the bullet back (what was left of the jacket sans any lead) which is what made me try some of the LRABs upon my return.

Dead is dead and he didn't go anywhere when hit with the Berger, but it just left me with an uneasy feeling with so little weight retention...at that distance especially.

I really wanted the LRABs to work, but my rifle says otherwise and it wasn't even a close race.
