Found a possible problem with the load i am using. Went back out today and again shot a 3" 100 yard group with 80gr. Loaded up 90gr and took 2 shots which measured 1". When i was reloading some 100gr charges i noticed the wad felt like it was straight up rather than flush against the powder charge.

Those 2 shots grouped horrible so i am thinking i should melt some of my bees wax/olive oil lube and soak the wads in them since they are so soft and fold up easily.

Other than that, the 90gr Load impacts a good 4" higher which i didn't expect but its extremely accurate and the recoil actually feels good.

A little more experimenting and then shes done as far as load development goes.
