[QUOTE="griffin ordway, post: 2273524, member: 107138"] Particulars: -Weatherby Vandguard 308 Win -165 gr. Accubond bullet -40 gr. AR Comp. -Lapua brass, 2x fired/resized -CCI BR-2 primers -Redding dies: knocking shoulder back .002, neck sizing w/bushing die -Perfect range conditions....no wind, 70 degrees -Chrono stats reasonably decent: 2690 fps, SD 13, max spread 25 I did load development to get this baby to shoot 5/8 MOA at 100 yds. consistently. Then took it out to 300 hundred to verify and WOW, it shot well over 2.5 MOA! I've had this happen with Barnes TTSX's because of their extra length to weight, and gave up on them because I was never able to get good consistency past about 250 yards. Been using AB for all my hunting rifles, in many calibers, for years now, and have never had a problem like this with them. I have to chalk it up to something in the reloading process.....but I don't know where to start. Anyone have any suggestions or insight as to what the problem could be? [/QUOTE]
