[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1673149, member: 11960"] I had a 22-250 that did this with one specific load. The load was 29.7gr H322 with a 52gr Berger FB jammed .015". This was the load I shot in local BR matches and it was sub .2" ( with a lot of sub .15" groups) for 5 shots at 100 yards as long as I shot it well. At 200 yards it was nearly .7 MOA! If I had the load tuned well for 200 yards my 100 yard groups opened up by 50%. I actually used two different loads for 100 and 200 yard matches. I've never had another gun which was this picky, but I typically do my testing at 200-300 yards now to eliminate the 100 yard trophy groups only to be disappointed by groups farther out. [/QUOTE]
