[QUOTE="carverelli, post: 84105, member: 4794"] fifty, When I built my 6-284, I had several personal email correspondences w/ you in 2002? We went over case prep, barrel manufacurer and your gunsmith reccomendation(since you have started doing your own). I appreciated your advice, but have yet to realize my guns potential. I just haven't spent the neccessary time needed for working up handloads. Yesterday showed some promise. Three loads using h-1000 grouped under 1/2" @100yards. 53gr, then 54gr(chronographed @ 3310 fps), and then 55 gr. Pressure was ok, a lot less than 55 gr rl22. Bolt lift on the Rl 22 loads was a little much. It seems like the last little bit of bolt lift is always a little hard. I think I'm going to concentrate my efforts on the H1000. Yes I'm using 107 gr SMK moly coated. The h1000 loads also had Fed 210M primers. Dennis Olsen rechambered my Lilja barrel so I could touch the rifling w/ the vld's and I'm geting good results .010 off the lands. Also got my NF Benchrest 12-42 reworked at their place. They said a few of the lenses were off a little and they regresed the o rings and put new turrets on it. It is much better that it was when I got it. I was ready to sell it and replace it w/ another LR Loopy. I'll try loading up some more 107MK and H1000 trying to get to 3400fps. Also thing off another rest.
