Since I'm cheap, I'll use any generic bullet to get on paper and semi close to zero'd in to my target when setting up new items (new scope, mount, sights, or whatever). Once I'm pretty close, I'll switch over to higher quality ammo.
I shoot steel ammo at times (don't think less of me), and when it comes to distance work, I'm often just happy to hit the target most of the time. I do NOT expect a 400 meter target to have decent groups when shooting reduced IPSC sized steel. Not with junk stuff.
