[QUOTE="shooter7, post: 1662538, member: 39303"] I'm working on my most taxing project right now. It's a CA Mesa in 300 Winchester Magnum. I've had plenty of other rifles that all shot well and I could generally just load up something similar to what everyone else was doing and have solid load. This 300 is a stubborn one. I've tried 6 different bullets and 2 powders and have only been able to break the sub moa mark a couple times. My latest testing has brought me around to the 181 Hammer Hunters. The first 5 shot group wasn't sub minute due to what I am hoping was a flyer on my part. 4 out 5 went into 1 ragged hole. So far I have about 325 rounds through the rifle. Right now I'm focusing on my brass prep and charge weights. I'm doing a .002 bump on the shoulder, tumbling after both before and after sizing. I'm weighing powder charges on a beam scale and digital. I'll shoot a couple more groups to confirm the powder charge, then I'll start playing with seating depths. [/QUOTE]
