Re: My SAC .30-06

Did a little firing yesterday... Conditions were raining and getting pretty dark so I wasn't really shooting for accuracy, Just looking to see where my pressure limits were and to get some h2o case capacity measurements.

Below is a ladder from 50.5-54.0gr in .5gr increments of h4350 (8 shots, 100 yards. I know I know....Ladders are useless at 100 yards...but at least I got my pressure limit)

208 amax (fouler bullets, dinged, dropped or physically blemished in some way)
Seated .010" off the lands
3.447" oal to the tip.
Lapua brass
Cci 200 primers

Target is about 1/2" dot, maybe slightly smaller.. Total group measures right around 1/2 moa.. I can't wait to see what it will do with a load dialed in!

No Chrony data yet, hopefully tomorrow.

Re: My SAC .30-06

Yes, definitely a good start for 8 different charge weights holding right around 1/2 moa

We'll see how she does with some load development now that I have my pressure ceiling..
