[QUOTE="Copper Basin, post: 2165947, member: 53829"] Next round of fire forming brass. Today I used Norma URP and Berger 153.5g LRHT and Hornady 153g A-Tips. I used 49g with A-tips and had an ES of 21 with a MV of 2773. Quickload predicted a MV of 2829. I will adjust some inputs on this one to match up. I used 50g for the 153.5 LRHT, ES 20 and MV of 2825. Quickload predicted a MV of 2845. This was close and some minor fine tuning to improve this load. These bullets were leftover from some load development I was doing for a customer. Once I got my speeds I did some shooting at a sheep silhouette at my range. It is 538 yards and I did no load development for these bullets. Just loaded them .040 off the lands and tried to shoot the eye out. The first pictures are the 153.5 (3 total) and the second group is the 153 A-Tips (2 photos). These SST's shoot so good.
