At 18 years old, my stepson bought himself a beautiful M-1 Garand made by Winchester. He asked "can we work up a load for it?" Of course, says I. H-4895, a 168 gr, and I laid down a 1" group at 100, with battle sights. I said "that's your load".

We made some more ammo, then I zeroed it to that load at 100 yards. After that I ran it out on 2/3 IPSC to 400 yards. He said "how in the hell did you do that?" I said, "I work here, son."
