[QUOTE="dakota1tn, post: 779169, member: 15050"] IF your not useing a bullet comparator to measure each bullet depth that could be your problem. Bullet depth is more important that grns of powder. When you find the right bullet depth by ojive it will most likely shoot the same even with one grn higher or lower. That is at 100 yrds. Still lots of things besides that... that it could be but thats where I would start. IF you are using the comparator I would make sure the barrel is floated properly and also that my cases were from the same lot. Also if they have been fired more that 4 times they should be annealed which will give them a more even tension. Another question is do you know where your gun shoots best as far as how clean the barrel should be? Most guns have a sweet spot as far as how clean they should be to shoot best. Also make sure you have a really great rest!!! When you move to longer distances it really matters!! When trying to get a gun to shot the best groups... dot move the scope untill you find what it likes best (as long as its on paper). [/QUOTE]
