    Fgmm Creedmoor brass?

    I've used the Federal GMM which was factory loaded for the 6mm Creedmoor. It has worked well.

    Large groups-runout issues

    If you are mixing primers that could be part of the problem. Are you able to measure velocity to give us an idea of what you're getting with 39.5 gr of H4350? You may need to increase the powder charge. Have you tried a box of factory loaded Hornady match with the 140 gr ELD-M bullet?

    Have you tried calling Mile High Shooting Accessories? They are a well regarded AI dealer. Call them, don't email. They aren't very good about responding to email queries.

    Springfield 7prc accuracy issue.

    Did you change lot numbers on the ammunition? I've experienced 3-shot group going from 1/4 moa to 1 moa when using Hornady match ammo from different lots. That was in a 6mm Creedmoor with the 108 gr ELD-M.

    Just stop? Or keep chasing perfection?

    It sounds like you're making things more efficient. I don't think you'll see much, if any, improvement in group size.

    Did I anneal my brass?

    I don't think so. I think you have to get the temp up to something like 900 degrees F. Try pinching the neck together slightly with a pliers to see if it springs back.

    I'd say what you're seeing is possible. I'll be curious what your next test shows. You may have a narrow sweet spot.

    nominal but fat chamber reloading

    Some guys do what you are thinking. These days the general belief is to full size the brass each time. However, after you take some more measurements, ( fired case and resized case), and compare the numbers to the SAAMI specs, we'll have a better idea on how to proceed. Here's a link to...

    nominal but fat chamber reloading

    If I understand your description correctly the brass is doing what it does when you full length resize. Have you taken measurements on the brass cases after firing and after resizing? (Other than the shoulder datum location) How much is the resizing die reducing the diameter on the case...

    Lost about 90 fps - 300WM once fired brass

    Oops, I had it bass-ackwards. I don't know why then.

    Lost about 90 fps - 300WM once fired brass

    Yes, it is possible. Especially in a belted magnum case. What is happening is the first time you fire a new piece of brass, some of the energy is pushing the shoulder of the case to fill the chamber. Then if you resize the brass by pushing the shoulder back a few thousandths of an inch the...

    Powder Burn Rate & Ballistics for Precision Rifle

    I'll try to answer. I think your approach is basically a good way to do it. I would suggest using one of those laser thermometer instruments to measure the side of the case just before putting the cartridge in the chamber. Get set up so that when you chamber the cartridge right away. Don't...
