Just got back from the range today. thought I would give an update on this barnes 200g LRX.
Remington 700P bone stock with a 6.5-20 viper pst.
26" barrel
COAL is 3.650 to fit the mag
90g H1000
CCI 250 Primers
Rem. brass
100yds
.459 4 shot group
3102 velocity
ES 30. kinda high, but I'm not sure how to fix that.
temp was 60 degrees and elevation was 9250(Colorado)
1 fowler shot and then this 4 shot group.
The only pressure signs I had was right after i ran a wet patch through the barrel to clean it. Other than that, when it was dry, there was nothing. I could probably go hotter, but with a group like that out of a factory gun, I will leave it alone for now. I hope to use this on elk here and deer in nebraska this year. If I kill something with it, I will post the results.
