Sorry about pics they are turned sideways for some reason tape should be on top of groups showing target proper only a 2 shot group as I made a scope adjustment without thinking first then shot the 3 shot group in first pic with bullet seated in 5 tho more than the 2 shot group if that makes any sense to anyone.

I reloaded more at the first COL for a .75" @ 200yards 4 shot group

Nice looking gun. Do you have a velocity and final load data including components?

Thanks, and so far the Retumbo at 57.5 2925 starts to flatten primers ,and really carbons my barrel .
H 4831SC at 51 GR gives me my best group at 2814 and I think I have room to bump up velocity yet but have not tried . I think I am going to stick with the 4831SC for now if I can get up around the 2875-2900 without accuracy falling off I will be happy .
