[QUOTE="scsims, post: 646957, member: 9755"] I have been trying to work up a load for a 30-06, first I tried Varget with the Hornady SST touching the lands, and then .002 off the lands. Best group was about 1.75" and I couldn't get the velocity that I expected. Then I tried H4350, and got much better velocity and the groups shrank to 1.2" @ 100 yards. This was with the SSTs seated at the .002 mark. My question: Should I seat them back to .003 to see if I can tighten the groups or since I'm using another powder should I set them back to the lands and start over? BTW: I'm doing this for my brother and he said that 1.2 is good for him, but if it were me I could rest with that. [/QUOTE]
