[QUOTE="bowhunthard88, post: 264540, member: 12575"] Hey guys, Here's an update: fired 3 different groups of 3 shots each + 1 cold bore shot. 33.1 degrees F, @ 100 yds. Cartridges were loaded with Varget and 52 gr. HP Speers (#1035), with different COLs of 2.6065", 2.660", and 2.680". (COL: 2.680") The smallest group averaged 3591 fps with 36.4 grs. @ 0.259" 3-shot group. 98.70 fps extreme spread. [IMG]http://varmintxt.webs.com/images/220swift.jpg[/IMG] (COL: 2.6065") Second smallest group averaged 3537 fps with 36.4 grs. @ 0.823" 3-shot group (including cold bore). 69.16 fps extreme spread. (COL: 2.660") Third group averaged 3575 fps with 36.4 grs. @ 1.062" 3-shot group. 83.05 fps extreme spread. I've got a good start, I just need to figure out a way to lower extreme spread. They are ridiculously high for this rifle/load. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
