[QUOTE="Dhughes, post: 869011, member: 23610"] I thought I would give an update. I had a loose cross bolt on one of my rings, so we took the gun a part, checked everything out and torqued all the nuts/bolts/screws. Before I found the loose bolts/nuts, I tried probably 10 different loads with the berger 180 hybrids, 180 berger hunters and 162 amax's at .010, .020 and .030 off. I also tried different charges of H1000 and retumbo. Everything shot about 1.5"-2". It didn't matter what the load was. I went and shot 2 groups this morning. It shot about 1.25-1.5" on both. That was with 71.2 grains of H1000 20 thousandths off the lands. I'm still getting a little pressure so I'll back off a little more. I'm going to play with the seating depths this evening and see if it will get any better. I'll let you guys know what I come up with. [/QUOTE]
