Fish30114Blue Dot load range pics
Here are some pics of the range work.
The bottom left is 8 rounds of the Blue Dot load with the Final Finish bullets in 'grits' 1 & 2. The upper right hand corner is of rounds of the same Blue Dot load with the 1 of the #4 grit and 5 of the #5 grit Final Finish bullets. These were all at 100 yards.
The ones labeled 375 H&H were factory Nosler Partition loads @ 50 yards
These were the first loads I fed my rig after the firelapping session--130 gr. XXX's on top of 59.0 gr. of Win 760, WLRM primer.
This was 10 rounds of factory--Win Supreme 140 gr. Accubonds @ 200 yards.

Fish30114Thanks thornell, I was just amazed at the accuracy of the Blue Dot loads with the final finish bullets. I knew the XXX's would shoot well, but I was pleased with these as the first loads after firelapping. I'm stopping load development for this rig!
