[QUOTE="bsaoneshot, post: 1484387, member: 12842"] 3/4” isn’t a horrible group and it may get better at distance. That said with these high BC bullets high velocity isn’t always needed. I have pretty much the same set up as you have. All rifles and barrels are somewhat different. I have never been fond of Reloader powders and use Hodgdon exclusively. My load is 215 Berger, 77.5 grains H1000, CCI250 in Norma Brass. My 100 yard groups are consistently 1/4 to 3/8 in size. I have shot multiple groups at distance, 1” group at 630 yards and a 2.5” group at 1073 yards with it. This load in this rifle only has a velocity of 2850 FPS. I shot an antelope at 700 yards in an 8mph cross wind and it was a chip shot for the rifle. I would suggest trying H1000 and look for a good group and not speed. [/QUOTE]
