[QUOTE="PA Plumber, post: 2477034, member: 122018"] The GMX bullets did fine for fire forming. Don't know if a cup and core bullet would have led to less copper wash. Likely would have on this new barrel, but it seems to be settling down. Bullet seating depths set from touching the lands to .020 off. Had a 7 shot group that was just a touch over 1 1/2" but I was shooting quickly because a fellow beside me had a 300 Win Mag with a brake, and it was loud! Last 4 shots, pictured above, I was by myself at the range. [/QUOTE]
