Mine does sub inch with 80 grs.

phurley5I have shot many rounds of 80 grains RL-15 with Fed 215M primer. It will chronograph at 2450-2475 fps and has put them touching each other at 100 yards. I can only have that accuracy with 370 grain North Fork, both softs and flat point solids. When I use Hornady 400 grain Round Nose I get less speed and accuracy. I use them for plinking anyway. The North Fork load got me my Buffalo in the Selous.

Good shooting.

North Fork
G'day mate good of you to reply North Fork bullets can not buy here though woodleighs will be the go in 400 soft and solids.
have a good one.
