[QUOTE="wird06, post: 2065614, member: 116247"] So I have an update. I finally got a very short window to shoot my OCW with 162 ELDX and 7977. I loaded everything at 0.020 off the lands as this is what my previous barrel liked and I needed a standard for depth. This has been done with brand new brass that as been run though my FL die to get the necks consistent.This is the first time I have shot this gun prior to a few rounds for break in and everything was done at 100yards on the targets shown. My understanding would be I need to stick with the 69.5 charge as 69.2-69.8 seems to have the same POI and group size. I can mess with setting depth next, according to the books 69.5 of 7977 is max charge but I didn't see any pressure signs or hard bolt lift. What are your thoughts? [/QUOTE]
