[QUOTE="ShootnMathews, post: 2769981, member: 59915"] Ok. Now I’m getting somewhere with this load. My book lists 46 grains as max load and I stopped at 45 grains before which shot well with s&b primers but one bullet was kind of a flier. So this last round I went back to my standard 210M primer and decided to go up in charge. Additionally I opened a fresh can of Varget from a much newer production date. 45 grains this time shot about a 1” triangle. 45.3 shot about 1.25” diagonal string. 45.6 grains shot about a 1/2” triangle. So I went back in and loaded one more at 45.8 and shot this group. Definitely the best looking group by far. I think I’ll load one more group at 45.9 and see how it does. At 45.8 I’m just starting to see an extractor outline and starting to feel some bolt lift resistance but it’s not hard by any means. [/QUOTE]
