[QUOTE="Tim Behle, post: 53663, member: 523"] Agunner012, Call or Email Dan Lilja, I'm pretty sure he will make the 3 groove you want, but he doesn't advertise it, and he does charge extra for it. For those of you already shooting one of these rounds: What powder have you found to be the most accurate at long range, with the 240 SMK? I've spent the last couple of weeks working with Retumbo, I've been pleased, but not excited. One thing that really tied my brain in a knot. I did a test to see what shot better. Charges weighed on my RCBS electronic scale, or my old Lee Beam scale. Just for the hell of it, I loaded five more rounds just by dumping from my RCBS powder dump. Both sets of weighed loads shot right about MOA at 800 yards. But the five I dumped shot 2" smaller. I figured it was just dumb luck and the wind had died. Next day, I tried it again with a different load, reset the powder dump to the new setting and I'll be damned if it didn't shoot two inches under the other two five shot groups ( Both of the others shot right at MOA ) Should I just put both scales back in the closet?
