[QUOTE="Steve Shelp, post: 21862, member: 22"] Monte, It took me so long to type up that response, you had posted in the meantime. One thing in that second post really jumped out at me and I think Darryl's eyes will probably open up when he reads it...... moly. How are you cleaning and how many shot to settle the barrel down, etc. I still believe in my above statements, but moly does play into this especially when dealing with up/down variations. Most long Range BR guys have gone away from moly for this same reason. You were always chasing the up/down and trying to keep an even coat of moly in the bore. Also moly could be the explaination of why your loads are over the book maximum also without pressure signs. The reduction of friction in the bore lets most rifles shoot more powder to get back to the previous load pressure when shooting bare bullets. That's not unusual. Just be carefull if you ever go back to bare bullets. Pressure will increase. Let us know, Steve [/QUOTE]
