This is the best load in my rifle. Speed isn't as fast as is possible, but accuracy is better, so I can live with it. [Razz] With the high .531 BC, this load packs 1500 ft-lbs out to 460 yards, so it is still quite a package for a short action rifle.

I tried your load last week. Pretty much the same results, but mine were all grouping between 1/2 and 3/4" and that I called on the operator. Usually got 2 close to touching, then get all excited and yank the 3rd.

Thanks for sharing your data.

Hey AL, good to hear you've found success with my load. [Smile] I let my barrel cool completly between shots, I think that helps alot.
