[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 66771, member: 8947"] Fiftydriver, any chance of seeing your rifle barrel out of the stock. Pics of the stock inletting would be great too. I have been playing with bedding under the barrel out a ways on a my 35" RUM. Finally figured out a way to get good bedding. What a pain? Was having pretty poor results but it seems 240gr MK CAN blow up during flight. Reworking all the loads but switched to 220grMk. Groups have improved because there are now holes on the paper. Bizarre. I am really concerned that there is so much sorting needed with the Sierra bullets. For a match bullet that is pretty pricey, loosing 50% due to some manf variations gets me very concerned. I thought buying them in the same lot was good enough. Vertical stringing has been plaguing my RUM. Maybe bullets have something to do with my problems. When the weather dries up a bit more, I will get out and finalize some loads with the 220grMK. Then I will have to try some other bullets. The Nosler 200gr Accubond should be well made (?). All of a sudden bullets from a custom manf that can be used 100% aren't so expensive. Jerry PS a little slow about this but what is the 'point' of trimming meplats? [/QUOTE]
