[QUOTE="gunnut, post: 281649, member: 10551"] Can you gents share COL of the loads you're using with 100 gr TSX and possibly any COL of 110 accubonds that you may have tried? I'm using 69.5 grs R22, most accurate in recent Nosler manual and 3.260 OAL. First group with the rifle was 3/4" and shot this weekend and groups were like 2"+. Wonder if the first time was a fluke. Gun has only about 30 rounds total through it. Stoney point shows 3.660 to "touch lands" so I'm jumping bullet right at .400. Have read posts where guys say to "seat short" which I'm assuming is 3.170 range like factory Weatherby loads and others are saying 3.30 or longer. I can easily get to 3.4+ COL and still keep over .250 of bullet in the case. Any advice/help would be much appreciated! I've got 35 years of loading experience but this is my first Weatherby caliber and freebore is a new experience for me! Gunnut [/QUOTE]
