[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 31115, member: 8947"] Congrats, that is excellent shooting. Anytime you can shoot 1/2MOA consistently at LR, you are doing very well. I mean avg. group size, not best group in a bunch of shooting as most people use. Now try for further distance. You might find that vertical stringing starts to rear its ugly head. I have found match primers and quality extruded powders to help a lot. I use CCI BR2 and H4350Extreme in my '06. For bullets, I am sold on the Hornady SST's and the Interbonds. May or may not work better in your rifle. They shoot sub 1/2 MOA in my rifles. When sizing brass, I use the Lee Collet die and I find that it helps reduce runout induced during sizing. Again this really helps keep groups consistent. I think you have a very nice rig. Just go out and burn powder. You will quickly find that judging conditions will have a much greater impact then all the minor accuracy tweaks put together. Jerry [/QUOTE]
