so i've been interested in the federal borelock bullets for a while and i know many folks like the barns solid coppers . i know some of the coppers have a small amount of antimony or something else in them , but i call them coppers for simplicity . i was reading a few threads here this morning about the monoflex ML's and their flowers look very impressive even with only 50 grains pushing them .
anyhow , i'm interested in accuracy at 200 yards and under . my gun is a 2003 cva optima .50 . i realize i'll be the weak link in the accuracy game being new to MLing , but if i do my part ..... or better yet in the hands of a competent shooter ..... is there much accuracy difference between the more popular solid coppers ? or would 300 yards or more be needed to see a notable difference ? and yes im aware that some guns just prefer a particular bullet , but generally speaking which seem to perform best ?
please feel free to discuss other coppers beside the 3 i've mentioned
BTW .....
what are your thoughts on copper vs lead saboted bullets ?
what's your favorite solid copper bullet ?
thanks jeff
