I have a R700 .308 varmint 24" (pretty sure 1:12 twist factory barrel). Leupold Mk4 glass, stock pro-x trigger lightened to 4lbs, and a B&C Mk2 stock.
the other day i shot:
SWA 155 OTM, HSM Hornady 168 Amax, and SWA 175 SMK
in the beginning the 175 SMK was making same hole shots at 100yds (best out of the three weights)
168 Amax was shooting about 3" groups
155 about 4"
by the time i shot about 30 rounds rotating the rounds around (3-5 round rotations with no cleaning) over a period of 2-3 hours the 168 was constant at 3" spreads ad the 175 was making 6" spreads, and the 155 was about 8" spread.
any input or suggestions
I just ordered more ammo to do some more testing to find my rifles preferred round. anyone want to go shooting and "help out"
