260 Rem ~ 120 gr. Sierra MK
I've been having a heck of a time getting the 120 gr. Sierra MatchKing HPBT to shoot well in my stainless 700. So I swapped stocks, glass bedded/free floated, and tried some more.

I shot two groups at 335 yards , and the first went into 1.83" for 3 shots, and my second went into 0.63" [Eek!] A group at 100 yards was spoiled by a flyer, my first 2 shots went into 0.11". [Smile]

Here it is:

120 gr. Sierra MatchKing @ 2.8"
38.0 grs. Hodgdon H4895
R-P case
CCI BR-2 match primer
~
2783 fps avg./22" barrel

Now, I'm all out of these bullets. Isn't that always the case? [Confused] [Frown]
