[QUOTE="NW Hunter, post: 1101182, member: 23024"] Life has been really busy, but I finally made it back out to do some shooting. I bumped up the Retumbo powder charge in .3 of a grain increments looking for a higher accuracy node. Started at 57.6 and ended at 59.1. At 59.1 grains, the group shot horizontal with no pressure signs. Magnetospeed read 2990fps at 69 degree outside temperature. I think I will shoot 59.1 at long range to see if accuracy holds up. If it doesn't hold up, I think I will move base to ogive distance .003" closer and .003" farther from .075" off lands to see if that works. Does this seem right? [/QUOTE]
