I did a experiment at the range last weekend using all bulk HV ammo out of my 453. Winchester, remington and federal HV HP ammo, shot off a lead sled, 10-5 shot groups @ 50 yards. Each change of ammo brand was shot 30 times before the groups were printed. Result? Winchester was the winner by a LARGE margin, then remington, and a distant 3rd was the federal. No duds with anything other than the Remington.
