[QUOTE="DaveB, post: 4692109, member: 5958"] Hmmm. I wonder if Mr. Big polishes or trims any lead-pointed bullets. The point (meplat) can be damaged with very little change to the Point of Impact at 100 yards or less. Start stretching it out and you will see differences. I am sure that on many calibers the POI might not change at 200 yards. Damage that flattens the point about 1/16 inch is pretty common. There are tools to reshape a point. Of course, if the point is damaged much beyond 1/16 you are probably going to see a change and it might be enough to be called a flyer. [/QUOTE]
