[QUOTE="BigBluePup, post: 570399, member: 38287"] Hey guys sorry about the delay in replies, I've been in L.A. for work and will be here till the middle of December. I will get my COAL asap, highridge1, I've done a little research and have found this to be true and seems to be what I am seeing on my primers. Bart B, Thanks for the info I will try and get a few more of the details when I get home to see if that changes anything what resources do you guys use to get these numbers? I usually shoot 3-5 round groups when sighting in a round. When building a new one (and I'm no expert) I shoot 10 rounds 2-3 at a time and about 10min apart to not get the barrel to hot. At 200yrds I can make clover leafs with the current round I have made that's why I wanted to make sure it's a safe round because it shoots REALLY good. As far as the 1/2" group at 500 it was actually 550, first thing in the morning dead calm with no wind, I shot a 3 round group at a steal gong. took a tape measure out to it when I was done and 1/2" was the farthest part center to center (of the dimples in the steal) so no it was not measured on paper or even done in the "legal target shooting" method of measuring groups, I don't target shoot so I would not no the first thing about scoring a group like that. And I could not tell you if it was a fluke or not because I have not shot that round again since I am a little worried about it being to hot. None the less I am more worried about having my action splatter in my face of burning up my gun in 200rnds then I am at proving my accuracy lol... Once again thanks guys for the help I will try and get some more data and COAL once I get home. [/QUOTE]
