[QUOTE="brentc, post: 1291810, member: 16938"] Your load shouldn't change much accuracy wise between virgin and fireformed, but it is worth knowing the velocity data between the two. The Fed 215 is generally the preferred primer for this combination, however it's always worth the time to verify. Like I said before, you're in the right area for powder charge. Take your fired brass and verify the node. I would work with powder charges 76.7, 77, and 77.2 with your best performing components. One of these should give you your desired results. My Remington 5R printed in the .3s with 5 shots (1.25" group) at 330 yards with a 215 at .050" off the lands with 77.2 grains of H1000 in Norma brass primed with a Fed 215M. Not saying this is what you'll end up with, but it's an example of results obtained in a factory barreled Remington. You don't have to fireform all of it at once. You can break it down into batches of 25 or 50, once a batch wears out, start the next batch. [/QUOTE]
