[QUOTE="19elkhunter51, post: 2459941, member: 14169"] I don't expect great grouping until I have "fire formed" my cases to the new chamber. I have seen two inch groups with new cases and new chamber shrink to less than one inch after "fire forming" the new cases to the new chamber. I have a Ruger 77 in 25-06 that shoots very well, under .375 for five shots, with a charge of 4831. This is a factory barrel on a gun I bought used. I have had the best groups with the Sierra 117-120 grain bullets. I only use this rifle on deer and antelope so I haven't tried any of the premium bullets. Frankly, I am so pleased with the Sierra bullets I am not looking forward to trying any other bullets. Just my two cents and YMMV. [/QUOTE]
