[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1700488, member: 69478"] I think you can easily achieve that. Some powders just wont shoot with certain bullets or certain barrels. I would first find your powder node with IMR 7977 and shoot the most consistent load on paper with the same seat length you have been using. If groups are still not where you want them to be, then I would start seating your bullet in or out 0.005 at a time until your groups tighten up. I never had a problem in the past just seating bullets 0.005-0.020 off the lands with long, high BC bullets, until recently with my Dads factory Remington 7mm Rem Mag and my semi custom .284 Winchester. Oddly enough, they both shot the best with the bullets 0.050 off. This surprised both of us, and it just proves to try things outside the normal or what’s typical from your experiences. [/QUOTE]
