1894Steve,
My rifle has a seriously tight chamber and perhaps bore so has allways liked lower charge weights. This was the most accurate load not the fastest. VVN160 is good for this bullet with little muzzle flash at dusk/dawn.

Steve Malinverni1894,
I was speaking about a CIP standard rifle, and I've seen super tight groups with it, besides velocity and flatness, that was the request made by GBF (flatness).
If your rifle has the described by you tightness characteristics, I absolutely agree with you about the corrctness of your load. Your 120grs bullet oad is a little lighter than mine (46grs) for 139grs bullets.
