[QUOTE="dakotakidd, post: 1322007, member: 77824"] Took a few months, but my wife and I finally got settled in our new home, work slowed down enough to find free time to load some ammo and head to the range. Started with barrel break in. 3 shots of factory ammo then clean. Repeat for 18 rounds. Enough for a proper break in? I don't know, but that's what I went for. Switched to hand loads. 200 grain ELD-X Seated at 3.510" OAL giving me about a .020" jump. H-1000 at 76.5-77-77.5-78-78.5-79 grains Winchester LRM primers Once fired ABM (applied ballistics) brass I did not have my chony and wish I did. 79 should put me over 2800 I would think. Didn't show any pressure signs. I plan to load up 78.5-79-79.5-80 charges and head back out with my chony and see where I am at. Here's a couple groups. I think the gun is a tack driver if I would do my part.
