[QUOTE="Bigeclipse, post: 905513, member: 52437"] Ok so I have another reloading question. I have scowered the web for this but wanted your take on this. So I have recently started reloading. I finally worked up a couple batches for my 300WSM(X-bolt) and My 3006 (remington mountain SS). I shot the 300wsm first and was surprised that with the nosler accubond it shot AMAZING with almost all loads I tried...One ragged hole at 100 yards. I hadnt even started messing with bullet depth. Well I had the opposite results with the 3006. Ok so this is what I have tried...RL22 60 and 60.5 grains with 180 grain partitions. Both yielded 1.5 MOA. I still have to try the 61, 61.5 and 62 loads but my question is...with 1.5MOA with the other loads, is it basically a waste of time to try these other loads i.e. probably wont be much better or could one of those loads suddenly drop below 1MOA? I do have another powder to test...so it might shoot better with that powder(H4350 I believe). NOTE- This 3006 has shot factory remington corelokts at about .75MOA, nosler premium 165s at 1.25MOA, federal fusions 180s at 1MOA so I was expecting my reloads to get the same OR BETTER... [/QUOTE]
