[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 693690, member: 5219"] Lineman69 and others, Went out with 230 gr Berger hybrids this morning. Just got everything setup and a thunderstorm came off the Santa Catalina Mts. The chono didn't work but it didn't stop me from trying the loads. Used RL-17 starting from 55 and going up to 58 gr in one grain increments. Shot three of each load just to get a feel for the rifle's potential. All rounds were fired in a steady mild rain. 58 grs was the best group measuring .692 center to center at 100 yds. I will load up some more and use the A-bolt's BOSS to tighten the group. Yes that's right it is a 23" synthetic Browning A-bolt with Boss that weighs around 7 1/4 lbs! I'll report the velocity of this load sometime in the next week. I can add another hybrid to the list of others that shoot with random seating depths. FYI the jump was approx. .140" [/QUOTE]
