[Steve Smith]

You are correct, I do not shoot anything but match ammo through my match guns, period. Every practice is fired as a match. If I cannot judge improvement because the ammo sucks, I cannot improve, period. I don't know if a shot that was 3" off was off because of a bad wind call or because the ammo wasn't up to snuff. With good ammo, I ALWAYS know.

The poster that said that was merely stating that each bullet is "a law unto itself" and you cannot take a X weight Game King and the same weight Match King and expect them to shoot the same...weight is but a small part of the formula. Choose one bullet and shoot it.

Think of it this way. If you have to go to the range with just 20 rounds because that is all you can afford to practice with, then make every one an absolutely perfect shot. You are given the best tools to learn from, now put them to use. Quantity does not equal quality.
