I shot three more three shot groups today. Same stuff as before, remington core loks. Though this time I tried a different powder. I tried IMR 4831.

The first group I shot was horrible but I pulled the last shot. It would likely have been similar to what I saw in my next two groups but it measured 2.5". The next two groups measured 1.11" and then 1.13" at 100 yards on a warmish day.

So now I have 40 pieces of fire formed brass. I'm going to load up a couple of batches of bullets. I'm going to load up some accubonds and Game Kings touching the lands and .002" off the lands to see what they do. I'm going to stick to IMR 4350. Not sure why just trying to limit the number of variables.

Here is some other data. Nosler custom brass, winchester large rifle primers standard. I will be neck sizing. The bullets I'm sticking with right now are 180gr pills.

If anyone wants to throw their .02 in I will doing the loading later this week. Would mind some opinions.

Thanks

Tom
