[QUOTE="mmmooretx, post: 324449, member: 18736"] You did not say whose bullets you are using. I have a 24" Kreiger barrel and the SGK 200 gr. like 0.010 off the lands, Barnes 180 gr. TTSX like 0.040 off the lands and I am going to try a load today or Sat., rain & work permitting of Berger 210 hunting VLDs at 0.005 off the lands. Both the Barnes and Sierra's are 0.43" groups at 100 yards with my 300 Win Mag. I hope to improve that too. I find that it is a strange blend of barrel dynamics to find the sweet spot of your gun/load for the right combination of powder and distance between the ogive/land. I found that it is easier to hold one constant and vary the other until you have the right combination. I also spent 30 minutes talking to the specialists at Sierra and they love talking guns, loads and thewill certanly help [/QUOTE]
