[QUOTE="OldDutch, post: 2279175, member: 119791"] 220 grain Sierra Matchking. I am using IMR4350 targeting a book velocity of 2650 FPS, alternatively H4831sc targeting a book velocity of 2700 FPS. I have no problem posting my actual load data, but haven't checked the rules of the site to see if that's verboten. Both loads set to the same depth off the lands seem to shoot about the same. I have not chronographed either yet to see if the SD is going to be a problem at 1k. From 100 to 500 they shoot about the same. It's rare for me to be able to get out to the outdoor range right now, two boys aged 2 and 4 combined with my wife's work schedule doesn't leave a lot of time, so I haven't pushed it further yet. Differences in groups appear to be consistent between the two loads so far, being dependent on the weather and how I am shooting that day... A chrono should be enlightening. The Remington is a 700 PSS with a bedded McMillan stock and the standard Atlas bipod. I put a Burris Xtreme Tactical XTR II on it trying to be reasonably sure any issues are caused by me. I don't have anything else in the way of equipment, I'd sure like to get someone out there with a kestral spotting me one day. It's been a fun exercise so far at the limited ranges I've tried though.
