Well, just when I thought I was headed down the right road. Here's the problem - I have been working up 100 yard loads for .308 and settled on Sierra 168gr MK, 43gr Varget, CCI 200 with a .005" jump. These rounds have produced groups of .207" & .250". I wanted to begin same on 300+ yard work up and started with the following - Sierra 175gr., 43gr Varget and a .005" jump. Keeping the jump the constant I began bumping up powder at .3 per 5 shot group. My first 5 shot group at 300yds was crazy wild - maybe 5-6" and the second group was about same. Nothing was even close to a group - holes scattered all over paper. At this point I don't know what to correct next! Should I keep powder at 43gr and start varying the jump .010" - .020"? Very strange - never had such a variance before. The loads were as good as I can make them - Powder throw no more than .1gr var / runout was no more than .002". SD was 9fps and ES was 19. Anybody have any ideas about what I should do next? Thanks in advance for your help.
