[QUOTE="JMack, post: 1295936, member: 100587"] Recently acquired a factory Remington 700 DBM 25.5" pipe with brake 1:9.25 twist so I'm starting from scratch. Range report from today March 19. 33deg 40% humidity 0 wind 100 yards 3 shot groups round robin shooting timed 4 minutes between shots. CCI magnum primers 3.65 coal .20-.22 jump This was 4th load on brass 160 AB 74.0 gr H1000 1-7/8" (first shot low, two and three touching high) 160 AB 71.0 gr 7828 2-1/8" (nice triangle) 140 AB 73.5 gr 7828 2" (verticle string) 140 AB 79.0 gr rl 25 3-3/4" (first shot low, two and three high touching) 140 AB 70.5 gr h4831 2-1/8" (verticle string) 160 Barnes XLC 80.0gr rl25 1-5/8" (nice triangle) 160 Barnes XLC 82.0gr h1000 1-7/8" (nice triangle) Thinking I should redo the two loads with some new brass that had two shots touching. The only thing I can think is that the gun needs 10 or so shots to foul barrel and settle in? I'd really like to get the 160 AB shooting since I don't have many of the Barnes XLCs. Any thoughts? Advice? Thanks [/QUOTE]
