[QUOTE="rhouser, post: 427843, member: 18752"] Rifle is a stock Savage LRPV 6BR 12 twist. X3MHunter: A good idea with the neck tension. I also may try some FED 205's and CCI BR4's. I really am working toward .5MOA to 600. This puts me into the 500 yard EGG SHOOTER class (plus lets me reach out an touch my furred friends humanely). The 75 VMAX actually has a better BC than the Berger or Fowler 80's. They just may not "hold" as well. Is anybody getting consistant sub .5 MOA with a VMAX 75 6mm anything at 325 and beyond? Should I just start on the Bergers and Fowlers and keep the VMAX for sub 300 work? Right now, I am assuming my issue is not the gun. 8 consecutive 2" 5-shot groups leads me back to load development. I am getting no "squirrelly" looking groups. Again, this load shot raw .4s at 100 (with the FED 205 primers). Opinions are invited. thanks rc [/QUOTE]
