did some load testing today...

loaded 3 of each charge...7 charges total...

heres the best results...






a little playing with seating depth and my trigger spring, and i just might have a 1 ragged hole rifle...

rifle is still pretty new...got 40rds through her all together now..so it may settle down a bit itself yet...and my trigger spring got shipped today...so next time i shoot, i'll have it...

im pretty happy with that group though...being a new handloader, new rifle, not being real used to the rifle, its hard to complain about shootin like that..

had a few others shoot around an inch as well..i think only 1 charge was over 2" and its pushing max..no signs of pressure, but its a hot load..funny the load that shot best was 1.5gr less than the nosler manual...so its not a very hot load...but i dont care...a 225gr accubond moving at those speeds is going to knock the snot outta anything it hits...got no doubt about that...
