[QUOTE="Trnelson, post: 1310128, member: 42308"] I prepared the next round of 5 ELDM bullets for testing in my rifle. I don't think it is too far away from something as the last three bullets from the first test printed into .6MOA with a SD of just three (3fps) for the five shots over the magnetospeed. I am impressed with the extremely low SD and hope it holds up pretty close to that. My 'usual' load carries a SD of 8 fps. I know the rifle is capable of consistently delivering 0.3MOA so I hope to improve upon the precision of this load a bit. In an effort to not drastically change anything I adjusted the seating depth to 2.613" CBTO for a 0.050" jump in my rifle. 0.005" shorter than my first test with these bullets. Incidentally, this replicates the jump of 0.050" I use in this rifle with the 230 Berger OTM Tactical. I will be shooting these just as I did in the first test. With each shot coming from an ambient barrel, magnetospeed velocity recorded and into a target at 100 yards where I will record the group size. Once I have the load ironed out I'll test the terminal performance. What range (s) are you guys interested in seeing? Any other details you would like to see a report on? [/QUOTE]
