[QUOTE="FlinchedAgain, post: 200246, member: 8923"] Hi Everyone, Im using a standard sendero sf11 300rum that wont group any better than 1.3 inch at 100yds Im using Rem brass 215 primers 89 -96gn of Hodgden Retumbo and Berger 210vld, Ive also tried using 208 amaxes, Nosler brass, ADI AR2217 AR2225 powder, Ive worked up loads with each powder and tried various seating depths, resulting in nothing but a damaged wallet. All loads have caused cratering of the primer which I have put down to a firing pin/hole issue, there are also small brass flakes left on the bolt face after firing, I know that this is not a good sign but I didnt think it would have too much of an effect on accuracy, Is it worth trying 180-200gn projectiles to see if it prefers those, or shall I just take it to the shop and say fix it? Any opinions and ideas appreciated. [/QUOTE]
