[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 440888, member: 25383"] do this first: * remove the brake and then shoot the same loads. I've seen brakes mess up groups more than once. But also you are probably shooting somewhere around a 21" barrel. The Noslers are a long bullet for their weight, and you just might not be getting enough juice behind the bullet to stabalize them. They will shoot just fine in a 1:14 twist barrel that's 24" long, but the 55 grain BT's usually don't like the slower twist. Try the 50 grain Vmax or the Sierra #1365 at near max loads with a faster burning powder. gary [/QUOTE]
