[QUOTE="timberelk, post: 1403970, member: 100952"] Finally got around to getting out to the range... I shot the following loads: 3 once fired Hornady brass loaded with 38 grains of varget 3 new Hornady brass loaded with 38 grains of varget 3 once fired Hornady brass loaded with 38.5 grains of varget 3 new Hornady brass loaded with 38.5 grains. Both loads produced around 2” groups at 100 (before shooting this rifle I was shooting my muzzleloader and shot a 3 shot 1.25” group at 100 so I’m cable of shooting 1” groups). Once weird thing I experienced was that the POI change between the new Hornady brass and once fired Hornady brass. POI was slight but the new brass would group with the other new brass loads and the once fired Hornady brass would group with the once fired Hornady brass. Essentially with the 38 grain once fired brass load I got a .75” 3 shot group and with the 38 grain new brass I got about 1.5” group that was near the once fired brass group but didn’t group right in there with them. Do you guys experience different grouping with once fired brass and new brass? All brass was FL sized and trimmed to spec I’ll post pictures later tonight to show what I’m attempting to explain [/QUOTE]
