The part that will hump you up is that 51.3, 51.7, 52.2 and 52.5, will all fly into the same group center, with much similar group size......representing approx. a 5ish K spread high to lowof pressure, and only a spread, high to low,of 75 fps of velocity. 51.0 and 52.9 are workable within the same POI, but group size was double.....

53.6 gave a sticky bolt lift, for reference......

I won't tell you what the wind was doing last evening, or how many rounds have been fired since the last cleaning....

It'd make you choke on your Cheetos.......

(Disclaimer: work up your own loads, in your own rifles......)

This being a switcheroo from a known quantity regarding trying a little faster powder this time, and 'tis the first phase of R&D on a bullet swap. Though admittedly not quite as good for groups size (1/2 MOA), the above was attainedwith the slower powder and same/same for bullets.

This fasterpropellant yeilds a tad more pleasing load density as it won't allow any load compression, and since velocities and pressures are running neck and neck, I'm looking for the samegood results in the next phase with the other bullet. This first go was with Hornady Match, the next with TSX's.....

The rifle....

Five shot groups don't tell me anything I can't already know with three...

I'm much more interested in the one shot group, every day, all year long.

YMMV, of course........
