[QUOTE="jgal72, post: 1224104, member: 76980"] Yes, I shot it when I first got the gun. My first two shots touched every time I shot at 200 yds. Once the barrel got warm it open up a bit. Its been so hot here in PA I haven't shot much in the last six weeks. Hope it cools off soon! I want to shoot it a good bit before going to Colorado in October. The load I gave you was what my turret was made for. I was a little disappointed that the velocity was only 2946 fps. About a week after I received my gun a second turret showed up in the mail. Seems there was a increase in B.C. from the original. Have you tried any others powders? Guns are different, just like people. Just because it shoots in one doesn't mean it will in another. I really question one load working in all 7 LRM's or any caliber for that matter. If I had it to do again, I would just do the load development myself. My thinking when I ordered it was that since I was dropping down all this change, I'll let them shoot it and make sure its OK. Turned out the original barrel they put on the gun didn't shoot to there standards and they re-barreled it. [/QUOTE]
