[QUOTE="Doom2, post: 2349528, member: 108323"] That test shows definitely problems based on what you have told us with the rifle/scope or with the shooter, in my opinion. I can say that your powder wt. increment is too large. For a 40 to 45gr charge you should be looking at 0.3 grains. You also started off above Barnes maximum charge weight. You may be above the weight that Barnes felt gave good accuracy. Some thoughts from just looking at the targets: If shot round robin you may be experiencing setup issues affecting POI. Possible scope issues or installation issues. scope/shooter parallax issues. Inconsistent brass prep [/QUOTE]
