Bulldog563,

Responding to your earlier question on whether all of the loads developed by JJ shoot to the same point of impact, the answer is yes.

I should also point out that the initial cost is about the price for Federal ammo when ordered from JJ in batches of 100 rounds but the price drops with the second order since you only get charged the labor to develop the loads once. Drops further if you save your brass and send it to JJ for reuse.

I would guess your 500 ammo would cost more than mine, but the brass would be the biggest expense and that is amortised as you save it and have it reloaded.

JPK

PS, as an example of JJ's work, The Federal 300gr TBBC soft load shot really great out of my 375H&H bolt rifle (under an inch for 100yd three shot groups) but the TB Sledgehammer solid load shot three or four inches low and left at 50yds. I sent the rifle to JJ and he developed a 300gr Woodleigh solid load that shoots just about exactly where the soft load shoots. I use this load as an example since the rifle has a scope and I can shoot it off the bench better and so can better see the results. The load he developed shoots about a quarter to a half inch higher than the TBBC at 50 yds and into the same group at 100yds. Composite groups of two softs and a solid or vice versa grow to about an inch; and I'm not sure it isn't really me since I always shot the composite groups last.
