[QUOTE="shogi, post: 2103585, member: 18596"] Ok, I got out to the range yesterday and ran my strings with the cartridges with the new primers/old powder and the ones with the new powder/old primers. I am now as confused and frustrated as ever and am now bald as I pulled all my hair out. I ran a 10 string (didn’t run all 20 as it was pointless, as you will see) with the first rounds being old powder/new primers. I ran a fouling shot first and after running 10, the chrony registered my speeds as ranging from 2955-2985. The second 10 string was new powder/old primers (78gr of H1000) and the chrony clocked them as ranging from 2955-2986. For those that had questions regarding the addition of a new scope, I had removed my scope but left the bases (Leupold QRW) in so the test gun is exactly the same as it was when I originally shot it. If there was an issue with components interfering, it would’ve happened again. I still won’t be using the rest of the factory rounds (still have 3 boxes left) due to the possibility that I may have issues and I don’t want the weight of a wounded animal on my conscience. I’ll just be using the brass. Thoughts? If I missed anything, please tell me. I thought I was going to find some conclusive evidence but Murphy stepped in and threw a wrench into those best laid plans. [/QUOTE]
