That bullet was designed to fly straight and narrow...... period / exclamation point...... (my opinion).
Agreed they shoot tight groups......with just a little messing around to find best powder load. But problem, IMO, is for a variety of reasons they often don't perform very well on deer -- other than maybe a perfect broadside shot. I think Barnes and a variety of other bullets are much better for hunting.
