[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 2169591, member: 26077"] Sorry, for some reason I thought you had a Ruger 77. Must have confused it with another post or thread. There is not a lot you can do to the bedding etc on what you have so you will need to look at loads. Have you tried small pistol primers, and another thing that many find helps is a light crimp. The idea of both is to reduce the SD of the loads and allow full combustion before the bullet leaves the case. The softer pistol primers help do that as does a light crimp that hold the bullet in place just a hair longer. Best of luck, I think you will find the Lil'Gun groups really well, would suggest you start at 12.6 grains, with a small pistol primer in WW brass, LOA 1.80 [/QUOTE]
