308SakoGolden day at the range for .243 AI
[IMG:left][/IMG]
Shot my best ever group with the .243 AI Cooper today. Using 80 grain Bergers and V V 550 at 41 grains Federal 210 Match and R-P brass preped for accuracy and consistency, loaded .005 into the lands. 5 rounds went into .227 and 4 of those were .107 Not to shabby for a botique manufacturer. I really need another Cooper to quell the fever. Total of nine rounds went to .400 and I had very little vertical with this load. Going to explore it in depth next go round.

BushchookSame projectile over H 4350 is the most accurate in my .243 AI too . My best is 5 into 0.327 off a bipod over the trunk of my car .
The hunting imperative was part of every man's soul; some denied or suppressed it, others diverted it into less blatantly violent avenues of expression, wielding clubs on the golf course or racquets on the court, substituting a little white ball for the prey of flesh and blood.

Juggernaut76Damn nice rifle, damn nice groups! My best group to date is 5 shots into 0.093" from my Cooper M21 in .222 Rem. IMHO, that kind of accuracy wholly justifies the price tag!
Praise be to the Lord, my rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle.
