I loaded me up some 110 gr V-max in my 300 winnie, it is a M70 24" sporter factory gun, for some reason... out of 8 rounds only 4 make it to the paper... the gun is at least a 2 MOA at worst, and 1 moa (or better) with good loads..
I shot a 5 shot groups and only 2 made it to target (about a 1.25 inch 2 shot group).. The 8x11 target paper was on a big ol piece of cardboard 3x4 ft.. no bullets found..
seen a guy on here who said his 10 twist gets 3700 fps with them.
Could it be the bullets are comming apart in my gun?
I chrono'ed them all (between 3605 fps and 3656 fps)..
86.0 IMR-4350 0.100 from lands (to fit magazine).. no pressure signs (a slow burning lot of 15 yr old 4350)
81.0 gives me 3439 fps
Could it be that my twist is slightly faster than 1:10 and they are spinning apart? 125 Sierra's seemed to work fine going up to 3500 fps
any help
I think I'll try to back em down to 3400-3500 fps and see if they reach 100 yards.. They are for coyotes
