[QUOTE="Salmonhead, post: 2494029, member: 117979"] Is the brass or different times being fired? Like 2x vs 5x brass? If so, might be time to anneal. I start to see squirrely groups and ES spreads when the brass needs to be annealed. Other thoughts would be a different lot of powder, different primers possibly, or the lot of them, or different lot of bullets. I have the " same bullet" but some are older and some are newer and they measure differently. Sometimes up to .010". So if you are seating them the same, you could actually have a different relative jump to the lands. Other thought is the throat might be going. The last barrel I burned up seemed to shoot well then not then decent, then trash all together. Maybe test each lot of ammo with two consecutive three shot groups, so each lot of ammo gets 6 shots instead of three to hopefully rule out being lucky with the old lot. Hope you get it figured out and share the details with us. Good luck. That's enough to drive a guy to golf. [/QUOTE]
