Same Hammer results here for me in several different cartridges. My son shooting them in the 152 grain Hammer in his 30-06 with H4350 at 59 grains....MAGNUM PRIMER..... and they going 3,050fps in Savage 22" barrel.

Did you test using the H4831 with Magnum Primer. I have found that due to lower bearing surface they all require a bit faster burn rate and Mag Primer seems to really help too. I'd would go faster burn rate first. So I would probably go the H4350 route. And MAGNUM primer.

Scirroco can be very hard to tune in about any cartridge. Never got the accuracy in .260 with them or Interbonds. The 130 Accubonds will shoot very nicely in most guns. I was loading 42.5 grains of H4350, but I found the key was to start lower and chrono speeds as I worked up to speed at 2,850...

+1!!!

Good deal! That tells you the scope is moving 0.26563 inch per click. Correct value for 1/4 moa adjustment turrets is 0.26175 inch (equals .25 moa) per click. With the right ballistics program can just adjust click travel numbers and avoid sending the scope back unless you just want it fixed...

NO. 20 moa is 20 X 1.047 = 20.94 inches. Your scope is NOT the problem!

If they're not seated to slight crush fit as mentioned above it will show up in inconsistent ES's......

You still know nothing until you tall target test your scope. At 100 yards setup 36" or so tall target, shoot a shot with your 100 yard zero at near bottom of target then dial up at least 15 moa and shoot again with same point of aim measure the actual poi difference between the 2 shots. If...

Have you TALL target tested the scope to verify it IS dialing correct?

H4831SC is gonna be hard to beat, I would say RL26 if you can find it. Berger can send you load info. Just email or call and ask.

Never seen a 160 AB shoot its best until at least .050 up to as much as .120 off the lands. Jump it more and see. I start at .030 and and seat .020 increments and start shooting 2 at a time. If won't group 2 no need to shoot 3rd. My 7RM sendero shoots the 140 AB best at .075 off lands.

Just keep using the Barnes and sooner or later you will need a good light and some tennis shoes to catch with. My daughter and I average many (not going to say how many because it might be shocking and most are donated and all are legal) population control doe harvest a year and a very large...

As well as the 95 Partition. It is generally an easy to bullet to get accuracy and will deliver good pass thru's in 99% of angle shots. It is best suited to a 10 twist barrel also. Works great with H4350 for best all around temperature use. The 100 grain Partition shoots great in some 10 twist...

Had the exact same in my daughters .243....... hammer bullets will correct that problem for you.
