<<<But just what is a "Dave Bennett 210 Gr." bullet>>>

It is a swaged bullet made from a Dave Bennett die.
Scope was a Unertl 2" 20 power.

WOW, Congratulations Andy.
I would have never believed that anyone could cast a bullet that consistent, it just doesn't seem possible, groups that small are hard to get with custom jacketed Match bullets. Hope you have a good supply of those cast bullets or at least can duplicate them next time you cast.

Great scope also, I've been using Unertl scopes for years and they always seem to hold POI, guess this proves it somewhat, but some don't think they work very well.

Now I understand, they were swaged bullets, and I'll bet a bundle that he didn't use cast slugs to swage them, but I would bet that he used lead wire, now I can sleep better tonight knowing that the group shot was not with cast bullets. 

I've been shooting swaged bullets for a long, long time but not in Schuetzen rifles, they always seemed on average to shoot better than any cast bullet I can make and better than any of my shooting buddy's could cast. 

Again, Congratulations, that's a fine group with any type bullet, I often wondered why a lot of Schuetzen shooters didn't use sweaged bullets, being that they are so much more consistent than cast bullets better scores should be the result.

That is the standard method for measuring groups.
