[QUOTE="Trm82, post: 1417539, member: 77953"] Well I shot that load a few times and at 100 yards with the same results. Basically one hole. I shared my loaded with a friend which had the same gun (243 tikka t3 ) and he too had the same results as I had with the exact same load and once we shot past 100 yards to 200 and 300 the results were almost identical. So about consistency I think your wrong . It wasn’t just a fluke that two different shooters with two different guns had the same results. I would say that’s consistent. If a Bullet is not stable this will happen and shooting at 200+ tells me that info and I don’t end up getting excited about a load that is less than 1/4 moa at 100 yards to be disappointed once I shoot it farther out. I have had this go the other way to. My personal preference is to have a gun shoot 1” at 200 yards but have had guns shoot 1.5”@ 200 every time and would consistently be 1/2 moa to 825 yards. So for me 200 yards tells me a lot more than 100 yards so I develop all loads at 200 and then if it shows promise I shoot out from there. If you want to shoot 100 yard development go ahead. [/QUOTE]
