Agreed.
Just because something is steel cased ammo does not in and of itself mean it is shit accuracy. Because I hear that often, at which point I point to Hornady Steel match and some of the groups I have shot with that stuff. I have just found Tula to be shit though, yes, projos are shit and I would not be surprised if there was as much as a 5gr variation in their stuff, and Probably not that much off in their powder. in the 55gr stuff I have also heard the theory that the powder throw is the same as the 5.45 ammo, that the just chance casing and projectile when doing runs. I don't know.
Maybe I'll get really ambitious in the near future, grab some various tula loadings and break them down and weigh the projo and powder and see.
