Variance in bullet weight?

Does anyone know what effect a variance of 1>1.5% in bullet weight will have for target shooting? Paper or KoreFlute has to be hit right in the middle for best effect so will there be much; if any, difference in POI?

coffeeNot too many years ago I purchased some 30 cal. 150gr. psp, bulk bullets. The weight varied from 147 to 152 gr. and the accuracy was not so good. After sorting by .5 gr. increments Most of my 30 cal. rifles shot them below MOA. beerroger


Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward. Wisdom comes with age! Sometimes age comes alone..

The closer to identical weight the better chance for repeatable POI. All else remaining the same. But and this is a big but, only shooting the bullets will show how they will preform.
