[QUOTE="Ksmirk, post: 1396410, member: 6555"] I have seated from +.010 to -.100 using Retumbo and H1000 powder, gone thru 3 ocw test as I thought I screwed up, took proven loads and tried them but no love! only thing I came away with was the max charge of each powder. I've never had to shoot more than 45-50 rounds to at least find a load to be able to tune but I'm on my second box so I'm going with this bullet isn't going to shoot for me and this rifle, so I guess it's time to find something else and just see if it's the barrel or I'm doing something stupid I've yet to discover. Funny thing the 2 6mm's I shoot seem to love the Berger bullets! my 308 I couldn't get them to shoot either for some reason..... guess I need to get some SMK's as it seems they always shoot well with little effort. This chamber is throated long just for these bullets (ogive of 2.943) so I'll have to stay in the 210gr plus I'm thinking just to be able to keep it close to the lands..... has anyone gotten their hands on any of the Sierra 230's yet?
