10 shot group - .75" - 200 yards - Savage 10FP

[turbo54]

After shooting a clean 220-20X (22 rounds) on an NRA high power target at 600 yards this afternoon, I figured id hammer a shootnsee at 200. I had 10 rounds so why not? Well, hammer it I did. I took a picture of it before pasting it and stowing it back in the barn. Just went to upload it so I could post it and alas...the picture somehow didn't get saved on my phone!!! Best I've ever, ever, ever shot. Guess I'll just have to do it over.

Sorry for the misleading thread title, I know y'all expected to see a pic. Sorry to disappoint. Believe me, no one is more disappointed than me.

After some load development recently, I discovered a nice node at 41.75 Varget with a 180 SMK. Goes 2497fps average with ES of 15 and SD of 5. Loaded in neck sized Lapua twice or thrice fired brass to an overall length of 2.800, plus or minus based on meplat uniformity. Federal match primers. Case trimmed to 2.000", case necks turned enough for full (barely) cleanup. Flash holes deburred, and cases tumbled in stainless media (spotless primer pockets). Next node up is between 42.75 and 43gr (2575 fps) which my rifle doesn't mind, but I don't care to push. Why bother?

Now you just have to repeat that performance!

I would have saved that target, and framed it. :-D

The shootNsee targets belong to the rifle club, and get pasted until they're spent. My target probably had 20 pasted shots on it already. So theres my excuse! LOL

Lamironman: Thats a funny thread. I'm not sure my thread *quite* qualifies for it though. There are some flat ridiculous claims in there. WOW!
