[QUOTE="upacreek, post: 988191, member: 59039"] To answer your question the 180 bergers had 65.7, 66.0, 66.3 grains of magpro. Average velocity was 2790, 2855, and 2795 accordingly. Yes, this didnt make sense to me either, but that is what I recorded. The 162 SST's had 69.2, 69.5, and 69.8 grains of H1000. Velocities averaged 3007, 2985, and 2999 accordingly. Again, doesnt make sense. The SST's. Were .002" off the lands, and the bergers were .042" off so they would fit in the magazine. The 65.7 magpro load and the 69.2, and 69.8 H1000 loads made the above mentioned 1" plus flyer groups. The others were strung horizontally enough to prove they only shared a verticle consistency. The best I know to do is make all these again and shoot them again. This time I am gonna wait 10 minutes between each shot and mark where each one lands in order. Who knows, it could be me, or it could be poor loads. All I was hoping for was 2" groups at 400 yrds. Gonna go back and try H1000 under the 180's. Velocity was better and actually made 3" groups shooting 1 every 10 minutes. Was hoping magpro would work, but maybe it won't. [/QUOTE]
