Trying to find sweet spot

I'm starting to wonder if my gun likes bullets seated more than 30 thousands from lands & groves...

Seems like the closer I get the worst is shoots. Does that happen?

My Barnes loads like a .050 jump. I recently found a load for my 270 w/a COAL of 3.320. The SAAMI max is 3.340.

All rifles are an enigma. You have to play with them to figure out what they like.

My ears started smoking as my brain replaced the word "rifles" with any number of other words...

Are you sure it was not the word "rifles"?

In fact, I AM sure it was the word "rifles" that I meant! Mental lapse today - it was a long day before noon, a simple slip like that makes me think I may need to review all of the calc's I did this morning for work!
