[QUOTE="mountainman56, post: 1849078, member: 79106"] Finally got to shoot it. Less than ideal conditions with 20mph wind and spitting rain but finished the rifle last night so I couldn't stand it. The wind was mostly out of my 6 so it wasn't too bad. The numbers are load numbers and not the actual order in which they were fired. The first group out of the new barrel did rather poorly so there is no picture. This is not unusual and not fair to the 215 Bergers I shot it with. There was a load @2 with 200 ELDX that also did rather poorly. #1 was with 225 ELDM Hornadys and 8133. After this group I stopped cleaning after every round. As you can see the last 2 went in the same hole. #3 was with 196 grain Hammer Hunters and 8133, also 2 in the same hole. No telling what it could do with a better pilot. #5 was with 212 grain ELDX and RL-26 #6 was with 181 grain Hammer Hunters and H-1000 loaded a little on the hot side. Had ejector marks and slightly stiff bolt lift. Unfortunately it was too windy to set up the chronograph but I'm very pleased so far [ATTACH alt="Warlock1.jpg"]180281[/ATTACH][ATTACH alt="Warlock2.jpg"]180282[/ATTACH][ATTACH alt="Warlock3.jpg"]180283[/ATTACH][ATTACH alt="Warlock4.jpg"]180284[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
