Yup. However, plain ole Core-Lokts from Wal-Mart never let me down when deer hunting.

Since 1984. 22-250 through 300 WIn Mag. No shotgun, no rimfire. Loaded for others-30-30, 270, 25-06, 300 Weatherby Magnum, 257 Weatherby mag. Loading for other people paid for my 'stuff'.
BTW, the reason I handload is Remmie core-lokts had (have?) some serious quality control issues. A zero'd Browning BBR was missing the entire target-falling short-and I lost total confidence.

No, my factory ammo shoots 1 hole 3 shot groups at 100 yards all day when I do my part.
