[QUOTE="Hawk in WY, post: 2099293, member: 70947"] Those groups, if at 100 yards, look good to go for a hunting rifle. Groups seem to be getting smaller with more jump. I would keep going shorter. I have had good luck with Barnes bullets. They recommend starting .050 off the lands. I use that to find a powder load and then vary COAL. Every caliber so far has shot best .040 off. I personally would not use .001 jump. Eventually, you will stick a bullet either due to loading variation or recoil. That is guaranteed to happen at the worst possible time. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
