The recommendation to "buy better ammo" is well understood. I actually have Lapua Center-X, SK standard and Norma Tac-22 on hand, in addition to more common, (and cheaper) types of Aguila, CCI, Federal Automatch and "trash" Remington Thunderbolt.
What interested me was that CCI SV has a pretty good reputation as the best of the "cheap" ammo available - except for, in my internet searching, occasional fliers that are probably a consequence of less quality control that is an inevitable companion to lower price.
But put that together with reading a Campfire member's experience with higher accuracy by matching weights, and I just thought it would be an interesting experiment to grab a brick of CCI, spend an hour or two one afternoon watching "Mitty" on DVD while doing some weighing and matching, then run them through my CZ 457 and see how it all comes out.
