Just a thought from the past and a LOT of shooting, about 15000 rounds a year.
. Years ago I had a book written by PO Ackley. A man that spent most of his life trying to put a bullet through the same hole every time. He tried to make a gyroscope so perfect that it would spin continuously. He did wonders with bullets but he concluded that the tip/nose of the bullet could be damaged and had little effect on accuracy. However he would put slight damage to the base and the groups were lost. I had a gun shop and we did some similar tests. We even cut the nose of some bullets off at an angle and they were still pretty accurate. We then filed a small place across the edge of the base and accuracy went down the tube. Whatever this is worth.
