    Welocme to Gun Loads.

    It's up to your rifle I would say. NP's are known for their performance on game, not for their accuracy. Some rifles love them, though. It is entirely possible that you will see an improvement in accuracy switching to Sierras. That has been my usual experience with most rifles, but your rifle may have other ideas. Only one way to find out.....
    If I can see it, I can hit it. Now, where did I put my glasses?

    Thanks guys,
    You verified what I was thinking. NP has been my tried and true choice for years. That being said I’m intrigued by what a boat tail might bring to the table. My main concern is bullet expansion especially when you don’t hit bone.
    Thanks Again, wish I would have found this site sooner
