Thanks.To much vertical.Rifle is usually shot off a rest using 105's or 108's.Didn't take the time to run a seating depth test yet with the 80 Bergers so might be the load or the front bag.

It was an exercise in wind management today. XP-100 6BRX Brux 28" HV barrel.80g Berger FBHP,RE-15,CCI 450.

Thanks elfster,it was fun.A great way to learn what powder and bullets work.On to the bolt action.

Just something about that top right target everytime.Always horizontal to the right.

What happens when a scope mount becomes loose?Shot S,3,1,4,2 tightened the mounts then 5.

The 80 grain varmint match is built on a .925 jacket for 12 twist.Here's three from a Sinclair sample pack.

Personally would like to see it reduced to five groups and reset monthly or bi-monthly.Best average takes it.

Sounds good.Maybe I can get a .243 on the board,looked impressive on the first outing.

Elfster, If you re-barrel a rifle that's on the board to a different caliber is it considered the same rifle?

I have a new Krieger barrel heading my way.This one has 2562 rounds on it.I told the Krieger sales rep whoever made this barrel,done good.

Almost forget..629 away from bullseye. [/URL][/img]

Got a hold of some 6.5 100 grain Berger match bullets which are discontinued.Worked up charges from 41 to 42.6 of !MR 4007.If I had stopped at 42.3 would of been a great average..110 away from the lands and wind changing from west,south and back to west I didn't expect much. The little bullet...

First time?Damn,I think I need to find a new hobby.

I switched to Tula's in my LR 6.5CM.Using the magnums as that's all I could get.Less cratering with the same load and no change in accuracy.

Sounds like a good barrel. The 123SMK is 1.292 inches long so you need a 1:8 twist to make the 1.5 stability factor around sea level..Weight matters little. The 120 I shoot is 1.070 and a 1:11 twist gives a 1.66 factor.There is no advantage for me to overspin the bullet with a 1:8,only...

I have the older version,742 in 30-06.In 40 years it's never let me down.First shot is dead center,second close and third somewhere on the paper.Watch for worn rails in the receiver and rust in the chamber.Clean the chamber everytime you take it out or around moisture.It's still my favorite deer...

Yeah,I got bit by the accuracy bug.Takes three nights to load thirty rounds now.Just started turning necks on a lathe so probably will add another day.Just like racing,you want to do a little better each time.If I don't I'll spend twenty hours thinking about what went wrong.
