[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 755152, member: 48043"] Load using the shoulder as a reference like an '06 or similar. You have the original stock on your winny right??? If so you may well have to piller bed or put a laminate stock on it to realize its accuracy potential. We (my dad) had one of the SS's and he traded it because accuracy was flighty. I read later that the win tupperware isn't very sturdy and often needs replacing. Good luck to you; the wins can be fantastic rifles if you learn them. My remmy is still not where I want it, but I've got to actually get it to the range before I can work on it more. As far as powders, I'd look at rl22,rl25, retumbo, and ramshot magnum. I've not had great luck with h1000 in my last 7stw; it shot but it hit pressure before it got fast. rl33 is a possible too, but my initial run with 171 barnes match showed it hitting pressure earlier than expected. I'm gonig to have to play more I guess. [/QUOTE]
