[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1995991, member: 10755"] I am not familiar with the factory loads you’re quoting, but if your hand loads are doing better, why bother with the factory stuff? You can just pull the bullets, dump the factory powder and put your own powder load in and seat to what your hand loads were at and shoot away. The cases will need to be re-sized prior to seating bullets. Sometimes it’s not just the factory jump, but the neck tension is high on factory stuff which your gun may not like. I would also try longer than .010” jump and see where that gets you. My STW seems to like .030” jump with the same bullet, haven’t fine tuned anything yet though due to lockdown where I am, no hunting or shooting allowed yet. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
