The actual truth is, we can both have the exact same rife and use the exact same bullets from the same box, one rifle will shoot them different then the other. Each rifle is it’s own bullet launcher and it will prefer certain bullets that another rifle will not shoot as well. Even if that rifle shoots say 165 gr from one lot it might not shoot as well with the same bullet from a different lot.

[@maxloader5278]

Very true. When rifling is cut in the barrel, each barrel has different imperfections that will affect the point of impact. Once the barrel has been broken in with the series of shooting and cleaning then that's when you know what it likes.

[@maxgrimes6337]

That is the truth. Each gun shoots differently. You may not be able to tell them apart, but they will shoot differently.

[@dr.froghopper6711]

My old Savage 30-06 really liked the 165 gr best but the 180’s shot well enough, just lower. It was pretty good with 150’s too. That was a sweet rifle that I gave to a family member. It’s trigger was amazing!

[@Truthseeker57]

I have one as well and love it! Just switched from 165 to 180 grain and was wondering if it would affect my shot. Thanks for your comment!

[@fabben3519]

Well, considering the 180 grain is heavier, the trajectory is lower because the velocity is lower.

[@samgreninger6567]

I've known this for years but it really hit home when I bought 2 identical 308 rifles. One rifle prefers 125 grain Speer bullets pushed by IMR 4064 powder. The other prefers 165 grain Sierra bullets pushed by IMR 3031 powder.

[@boomerrangerron]

A great video and an honest review for sure! A lot of factors enter into this accuracy situation and you touched on a few. In my experience with my trusted and treasured Winchester 30'06 Manlicher, it simply prefers 165-grain bullets, but it will also shoot 180s as well. But the barrel is heavier. Barrell twists rates are critical too, since I have an old Weatherby .270 magnum that shoots great with 130-grain bullets, but will not stabilize 150-grain bullets. In fact at 25 yards you could see the bullet's tumble, and a three-shot group was recorded as a "Z"! I discussed this with NOSLER, and they informed me that the twist rate of the old (JAPAN) Weatherby's was simply too slow to stabilize those bullet weights! NOSLER was great about sending me an exchange and replaced both boxes of the 150 weights with custom .130 grain bullets. Now that's great customer service for sure! PS I love your paper plate targets that's a great idea!

[@dub7wells103]

I have the same exact rifle. My other 308s tend to prefer the 168, but the ruger American does very much like the 150s. Refloated the barrel and reinforced the stock and getting 1/2 inch groups @ 100yds. Poor man's precision rifle.

[@bngbraz2]

I have two .308's I use a lot. The SPS Rem Model 700 and the Savage Apex 110 hunter. Both like 150-168, grain quality ammo, and my groups at 100 yds with both rifles, and they are both always within .5" groups...always. I'm confused with the Rugar conversation and this rifle. The vice he was using should not allow for that much variation. Three concerns: 1.) The Rifle, 2.) The ammo, and 3.) the scope. With my mid-range Leopold 12 power scope, and the Vortex on the Savage Apex, I shoot tight groups always, but have never shot that green tip Remington ammo. I'm wondering if it's not loaded very consistently. Shooting Hornady ELD or Match grade ammo, and Winchester Silver tip ammo, I'm always tight on my groups with NO adjustments at 100 yds from 150-168, and 176 Match grade ammo with my two setups. Love my .308's!

[@oneeyedwillie1]

Over the years I've told my son the same thing. And we've passed this on to his boys (he has four). Of the six of us five shoot the 7mm mag. I'm not as picky as they are because I don't shoot the ranges they do. But each one has to use a different load for there rifle to get the accuracy they are after. So as you were saying to get the most out of your firearm you have to do a bit of shooting with different weights and brands of ammo. Thanks for your videos!

[@LKaramazov]

Great subject! I’ve got an AR 10 and I’ve been buying 147 grain 7.62 and I see the higher weights are really expensive!

It would almost be nice if bullet manufactures offered 5 round boxes for cheap so people could test there rifles for what it likes best. That being said most rifle manufacturers if you read the manual will tell you what ammunition and bullet weight is recommended for the rifle

5 won't do it for me. 25 maybe, preferably 50. Even then I usually grab a hundred.

Now even the Hornady Superformance in a 168 A max will start to scatter a bit versus the standard load.

A 3" group is about the best I can pull out of it with the 150's.

[@ericcraver4908]

I think that Ruger has 1:10 twist, makes perfect sense it shoots 150s better than 180s. 308 is a fine cartridge, but it and 556, I just use for ARs and only have for shtf. Much better chambers in other cartridges for precision and hunting.

[@MassholeMachinist]

I've shot 13 different bullets of varying weights snd tip style, and found my Ruger precision in 308 loves 165/168 grain. It wil shoot sub moa all day. The further away from that in either direction and the group opens up to near 3". Bullet testing is crucial. You could be spending mega bucks on the most expensive ammo and find that cheaper stuff may shoot just as good or better in your boom stick.

[@megastick9324]

My old savage 110 in 06 LOVES 165 gr, especially federal fusion. Which were originally a promotional under a different name, cant remember now, but named after one of these hunting shows. They disappeared and I emailed federal and was informed they were now called “ fusions”. It shoots most 165s very well, but those fusions are great in my rifle. ~ 1/2” 5 shot groups mostly , at 100yds. Most of the rest it stays ~ 1” or a little less. I’m talking decent quality hunting ammo, not cheap “ where’s it from” stuff. And , of course, 165 is the hardest to find in many brands. It does well with 150s also, but 165s are like candy to it.

[@bodynfocus]

I have an ultra cheap boolot slinger in size 308 that shoots crazy good. Took her to the range one day with 4 or 5 different brands of candy all in 150g. Mixed them up randomly in the magazine... it put them all inside an inch. 😎👍

My old 06 absolutely loved 165s. Wish you'd had tossed your 150s in the mix that day just to make sure you weren't shooting MY rifle. Thanks for the vid.

[@georgeleerogers1317]

its because of twist rate of the barrel, speed, and seating depth. Even in 2 identical rifles there is going to be sweet spots that will be different because of those 3 factors combined but predictable after some testing. It is simple but not simple.....then we can get into copper fouling, break in, barrel temps etc

I have a savage 110 Hunter and a Remington 7400 carbine in 30-06. I Zeroed them with 180 grain core-lokts and at 100 yards the 165 grains shoot dead on as well.

[@johnknouse8846]

When I buy a new rifle I buy every brand and weight of factory ammo in that caliber I can find until I find what it likes to eat! I have a Savage .270 that just would not group anything, better than 3”, until I found some Hornady Outfitter, which uses a 130 grain solid copper bullet, and it shot a 1/2” group at 100 yards with that. Hand loading is a little different. If I want to use a heavy 180 grain bullet in my 30.06, which loves factory 150 grain bullets, I can fine tune a load that will shoot the heavier bullets.

[@maxloader5278]

I was going to reply to WTW on my B14 Ridge in 30-06 and I saw your reply. I reload in my shop and my shooting range is about 75 yards from my shop so I'm able to make most any bullet shoot from my Bergara. I'll start max then go low a half grain at a time and usually I can make it shoot about anything. After the break-in I settled for the Barnes TTSX in 165 grain. Clover leaf 3 shot groups at 100. Depending on twist rates and the range of weight bullets that twist rate allows, I've came to the conclusion in my mind that if you reload and you have time you can make about any bullet you want to try, shoot good. I think it has to do with speed and pressure also. Anyways thats my 2 cents. Always like to chime in on WTW's videos.

We’ve had issues with my son’s Savage 111 in 270 Win as well, and like WTW’s RA in 308, it definitely hasn’t found a heavy bullet cartridge it likes. While I don’t necessarily recommend the Winchester Deer Season XP 130’s because of fragmentation, that’s what shot best for my son. I’m wanting to try some copper monolithic loads in his gun, though, so I’m grateful for John Knouse’s input. Thankfully the Norma Whitetail 130 g soft points shot well out of it last year because that’s about all I could find for it then.

[@johnknouse8846]

@@davidrussell631 that gun about drove me to drink (more)! I took 6 or 7 different types and weights of ammo to the range after I got it, thinking I’d be there an hour or so. I was there over 4 hours! It was a slow day, so the range officer was sitting next to me, and spotting for me. I’m sure after the first couple groups he thought I had no idea how to shoot! It would put 2 pretty close together (about 1” or so) then throw the 3rd, 2 or 3 inches away. Every time! If I remember right, the Outfitter was the last box I had to try. 3 shots in damn near the same hole! Made a scope adjustment up and to the left, and center punched it! I have 3 or 4 boxes on hand, but I eventually worked up a pretty good load with some Hornady 130 grain interlocks that I hunted with last year. I’ve also had good luck with the Norma in almost every caliber I’ve tried. I have a cheap Savage Axis .308, that will shoot 3/4” groups at 100 with it, but doesn’t like much else.

[@mine8009]

This is generally what I’ve seen with the .30 cal rifles I’ve owned. My .308’s tend to do best with 165 and lighter, even with a faster twist (1:10) barrel. 30-06 can play with the 150’s, but seems to do best at 165-180 gr. My 300 Win Mag, well one was a POS (advise against buying REM 700 LR, granted example of one), but my Tikka T3X has done will in ranges from 165 (Federals Fusion and Trophy Copper) through 212 (Hornady Precision Hunter). I’ve seen a similar thing in my, and my wifes 7mm-08 (T3X Lite Stainless and T3X Superlite). Those things have eaten everything we through at them and pushed sub MOA groups, as long as it has been a 139-140 grain slug. We ran some 120s because that was all we could find to get some trigger time before last hunting season, and the groups went from sub 1” to saucer sized at 100 yards.

[@joeymangum1723]

Hey brother your on the right track. It's not the bullet weight though it's the velocity that the projectile is traveling and it's shape and your specific barrel. Now I know this because I can take a specific bullet weight say 150 grains. And slow it weigh down by reloading it. Then speed it up in increments and watch the group get bigger to smaller back to bigger then smaller and so on throughout the velocity ranges I push them. Now in factory ammo it's almost always as fast as they can push a bullet so less bullet weight usually means more velocity. I love your videos and will discuss anything you want about bullet accuracy and how it happens.

This is one of the best video's I've seen to try and explain this so the most people can understand this. This could make an excellent series but with KZbin policies it has to be filmed and shared expertly. Find a sponsor like maybe Brownells that will provide 4, 6, 10, 15 rifles of a common caliber exact same scope mounts, scopes torque wrenches for install and a professional mount used for sighting in a rifle so someone can't blame you. Then like in this video shoot 3-5 rounds out of each of them with different weight, manufacturers off boo-lots. Then take it to the next level find a professional reloader that matches a load to a rifle and then reshoot every 1 of the rifles to show most rifles can shoot accurately if done right.

I think overall the performance is pretty decent when you consider it's relatively inexpensive rifle and inexpensive hunting ammo. Now if you were shooting the $2000 plus dollar rifle and match grade ammo I would expect better. But you're right every rifle likes and dislikes different weights and different manufacturers. I had an old Mauser action 3006 made by H&R it was a tax driver with nosler 165 partition at 2,800 feet per second. I used to average 3 in at 300 yd that was my moose hunting rifle in Alaska. Thank you 👍

Good video. That Ruger makes me appreciate my Savage lol

I have a Bear Creek arsenal AR 10. 20 inch barrel. It loves HEAVY stuff. The 147 grain stuff is all over the paper. But that 180 grain Winchester Super X is maling Quarter sized groups at 100 yards. I really want to try some 178 Match grade SMKs out of it.

[@merlinnorris817]

My 308 rifles with 1 in 10 twist Always prefer 150 grain bullets Had a couple of buddies that had rifles with 1 and 12 like the heavier stuff Enjoyed the video as always

[@waynemattson9143]

My 30-06 loves Federal fusions 150 grains. But it hates Remington Corelokt 150 grains. The difference between the two groups was nearly 3 inches in favor of the fusions.

velocity difference

The best caliber ever

Keep ‘em coming Wtw!!

[@shanegibb997]

even the little 22 Rimfire's can be really picky .... Great video wtw 👍

[@garytrainer748]

Thats very true. Everyone of my .22s likes a different kind lol.

[@shonuff601dj]

I got a savage axis 2 .308 and it loves 150 grain. I’m shooting Winchester Power Points soft tips

[@davidgregory901]

I have a ruger American in 308 also. I found federal powershock 180 grain work way better in my firearm. And closer group than you got.

[@davidrussell631]

With a 1 in 10” twist kind of surprised your RA likes the 150g’s the best. Out of 7 different factory bull-lots shot thus far my RA 308 Predator WOULD like best the one I can’t presently find, Sellier & Bellot’s 180g SP’s but Hornady Amer. Whitetail 165’s also group under an inch. (Worst 180g’s tried so far is the cheap Fed Power-Shok 180g with the Win Power-points coming in third, and the Fed Fusion’s a distant second to the S&B). If I splurge on some of the tipped Rem CL’s I’ll definitely pick the 150’s, though! Thanks!

[@johnnorman7708]

I know this is about accuracy, but I'm sold on 165 grain bullets in .30-06 if the gun groups them like it should. Good balance of weight and velocity. In .308 I consider 165s to be the heaviest that will deliver reasonable speed. 180s in .308 are a bit sluggish.

[@stevegimenez9981]

You explained it really good I reload I used the same load and different rifles of a sheet different

[@georgeleerogers1317]

velocity? some rifles like 100 fps more some less, take that same load in the rifle and set the bullet in or out .005 on your seating depth first before you change the powder charge

[@reapergrim76]

Very interesting! 😀

[@chuckydubree1925]

I like 150 grain for my 30-30 and 308 and 30-06 all in core loc thanks for posting keep shooting brother

[@chuckydubree1925]

But I have also noticed my ruger isn't as picky as my savages

[@darrellblake799]

Let us not forget these two bullets have different BC's. Also faster twist rates will better stabilize the lighter bullets. Twist rate would be much more noticeable with something like the 30 cal 120 or 110 grain.

[@richardthomas6602]

You mean heavier bullets

[@brsmith2801]

Did the same for a new shooter. He was shooting 5" groups and was happy as hell until I got him to shoot a variety of weights. He could not believe the 3/4" inch group he shot with a different weight and shape of bullet.

[@darrellblake799]

BC

[@boaringaustralia]

My 308 loves them 165 gr great vid mate

[@NuManXplore]

Great video WTW.

[@Rickkari7]

I just need an inheritance to buy the ammo I need for my grendel to test to find the best with today's prices.
