Ammo question

Hey there,

I can't find the ammo I have sighted rifle in and have used in the past. My question is do I have to resight or can I use the same grain in a different brand?

Resight

Re-sight....different manufactured ammo even in the same grain weight will fly different

Always put a couple on a target before the season. Good insurance

That is dependent on the preference(s) of your particular rifle. However, it is quite likely that different ammo brand albeit same bullet weight may not group the same and/or have closely similar POIs.

Yup, like they said. You need to know exactly where your shooting. Good Luck

Like the others have said, take a least one shot downrange to see if it is still on the money..

Thanks guys, I figured as much.

I check the zero of any of the rifles I intend to use in the upcoming season beforehand, regardless of whether I have changed ammunition or not. Maybe I am paranoid, but I think it is a good practice.
