[QUOTE="bailey1474, post: 72558, member: 3249"] Managed to get away this evening and shoot a few of each bullet with various charges of H4350. Both were seated .020" into lands. I could not get the Bergers to group very well. They only shot around 1 MOA @ 100 and 250 yds which is just not good enough for me. They seemed to shoot the best w/45 grains. I may play with the seating depth and see if I can improve the groups a little. May also try some RL 22 w/them. The Amax on the other hand shot very well. They shot better than the Bergers w/all powder charges. I haven't measured the groups yet but 43 and 44 grains both produced groups of .5" or less @100 yds. The 44 gr group would have measured <.4" if I would not have pulled the third shot. I shot a fourth and it stacked right in with the first two. I'm going to do a little more testing with the Amax Friday evening and see what they do @ greater distances. Hopefully will get to chrono them also. If they do well I'm going to try for a 600 and 700 yd prarie dog Sunday!! Thanks for all the advice, guys. B.J. [/QUOTE]
