Did they group well? What brand of chronograph did you use?

shootaway;

It would be polite and nice to say "thanks" and then ask for more info. It might help to give you a better image with some folk here on AR.

465H&H has gone out of his way to help you, saying "thanks" would be the right thing. Smiler

I've always said thanks.There are times that I feel really tired,and I don't say the right thing.That said,one shouldn't go around looking for communication mistakes others make,and then bring them up for analysis.If you think that I am not grateful anytime someone tries share his reloading experience with me you are wrong.

The 81 gr load grouped right at an inch at 100 yards and the chronograph is a Competition Electronics.

Top response Shootaway. Roll Eyes

Like it or not - you are making a point, and one that does not show you in a good light.

Enjoy the holiday.

After feeling really satisfied with the way Woodleigh FMJ's feed and shooot in my rifles,I decided to place another order for more 500 grainers.To my dissapointment,my supplier had only three boxes of 550gr in 458 left and decided to no longer stock Woodleighs.I have enough 500 grainers left to hunt with and I will work up some loads with the 550 grainers for standby.I here 550 grain solids are great penetrators.
