I'm trying the 180 gr Hammer Hunter in a Savage 116 Bear 22" barrel and 1:10 twist. I started at the below data at 200yds. I have not found pressure yet but my deviations are dropping as I go up in powder. You can cover these 4 shots with a quarter. Two questions, Steve says these bullets like a partial filled case but by the time I find pressure I'm compressed. Any thoughts? And I see my SD's coming down the same in my PRC. Is this due to getting close to pressure or barrel heat or getting close to a node.
