[QUOTE="Revived, post: 2351390, member: 31505"] Nothing wrong with looking for bargains… Your platform is fine… As far as brass – all manufacturers have lot variables… you’ll pay more for a lower percentage of these differences and you simply set aside the high/low oddballs because – it’s all about consistency… I know you’ve seen me preach this before, but I sense your effort and want you to realize your shooting potential… More trigger time will get you there… This is a lame analogy but it happened to me a few years ago… I had a musician friend wanting me to check out his gun… He had a more expensive “off the shelf” gun and thought he should be a much better shot than he was… or there must certainly be something wrong with it… I put some rounds down range and he was embarrassed to say the least – but he did add something I’ll never forget… He said “the best guitar players always could make a $20 guitar sound like a million bucks”… There’s a 80/20 rule for shooters… 20% consistently make the winners circle the other 80% spend their valuable trigger time looking for a better gun and/or perfect ammo only to lose interest… Just sayin’ [/QUOTE]
