[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1921877, member: 2736"] Many things can cause the group to change, But 12 times larger, has to be some mechanical in my opinion. Straitening loaded ammo should not have that much effect on accuracy unless you over did it. First, if you are loading ammo that has .002+ runout your procedure is poor/bad and needs improvement. Two much straitening can impact the accuracy some but not that much. First loading's shoot the best. Straitening ammo normally helps, but it never shoots as good as non straitened ammo with the same runout. It sounds like a glass problem or a mounting problem to me. Ammo Improvement should not hurt/change the accuracy that much. There is one other thing that could have been the problem, You may have been having a really bad day and started flinching or punching the trigger. (We all have them). Your idea of trying some factory ammo Is a good one, because you will have a comparison between two Different ammo's. If it is slight, it is an out side problem. If the difference is extreme, then the ammo may be the problem. Hang in there. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
