So,
Just got done with my load development on my 7mm Weatherby. The gun is as follows;
Savage 110 Action
Lothar Walther Barrel, 7mm Weatherby, 1:9" Twist
Badger Ordinance Muzzle Brake (F.T.E)
Rifle Basix Trigger
Bedded Boyds Varmint Thumbhole.
All load development was done at 100 yards. Gun is shooting EXCELLENT! Three 5 shot groups in a row all under 3/8 MOA with the lowest being .167 MOA. I was fricken pumped!
Stuck a target out at 300 yards... and all hell broke loose.
5 shot group 2.45 MOA. Yes... Im serious.
Shot another five shot group. 2.05 MOA.
Went back to 100 yards (thinking my scope let loose).. .275 MOA.
What in the world is going on here? Im at a loss.
It is shooting a 154 SST with RL22 powder at 3120 FPS, 25 FPS extreme spread, 8fps S.D.
Could this be cause by the crown/muzzle brake?
