[QUOTE="revturbo9967, post: 1324542, member: 89706"] More information on my set up. Stiller tac 300 action . K&p barrel 1-8 27.5 finished length. Work done by long rifles inc. rings are seekins precision with vortex amg on top. I'm not confident in my reloading. I've only been doing it for a few years and still don't know if I'm right or wrong. When shooting I let at least 5 minutes between shots once it gets warm, so 4 shots from cold the wait 5 minutes after that. I don't leave the bullet in the chamber heating up last night , as I read this recently. Cleaning , i run 2-3 wet patches off butches bore shine down the tube, scrub 10 strokes with brass brush, follow with a few wet patches of hoppes then dry patches till clean. Then 1-2 lightly oiled patches. It's been getting clean pretty quickly . One target not finished but this is what It was doing last night . [/QUOTE]
