Default More Kudos for Savage

I recently entered a post about a Savage 11FYCAK I got for my grandson. Well, working up a load for it, I shot10 different load combinations. I found one the rilfe likes - likes alot. The load is 38 gr of IMR4895 behind a Winchester 150 gr Power Point bullet and CCI large rifle primers. Other powders used were IMR4350, RL-19, IMR4064, and Varget. Other bullets I used were Hornady 139 gr BTSPs, and 154 gr. SP, andNosler 140 gr BT.
Before this load, the groups were measuring from 1" to just over 1.5" C to C. This load shot 2 consecutive groups of 0.41" and 0.29" C to C.
Hopefully the pic will upload.
