Default Barnes 250gr TEZ

TC Triumph
Bushnell Trophy 1.75x4x32
BH209
WIn W209 primes
Barnes 250gr TEZ

worked up load from 80, 90 and 100gr BH209. If the attachment works the photo is 5 shots at 100 yds with 100gr. The shot off to the left I called when I squeezed it off ( 4th shot ). The 4 shot group measures 1 3/4", 5 shots @2 1/4". I'm about 2 1/2" high @ 100, should be dead on @ 150.

Thanks for the approval. I plan on using this load for our main rifle season, in November.

The Barnes TEZ 250 grain shot horribly out of my Omega with 80 grains of BH209. I may try 100 to see how it goes. How did your Triumph shoot with just 80 grain loads?

I'd be lucky to get a 4" grouping @ 100yds, 80gr.
