[QUOTE="31incher, post: 1009722, member: 85333"] I appreciated everyone's comments thus far. I'm not exactly looking for one hole accuracy. I wouldn't mind it but it don't think I'm capable now is my factory barrel. I went to the range yesterday working on charge loads. I set seating depth at .040 off the lands as where some previous testing showed some promise. I loaded up 30 rounds and every five I up to .5 grain increments. I started at 69.0 grains. 69.0 through 70 grains showed the best results (about .5 moa) after that they really started to open up. I didn't get to run them through the chrono and check the es(I plan on doing next time when I have more time). So my next question is where would ya go from here? Do the whole berger test? Or be happy with the .5 moa group and maybe tweak it a couple .001 each direction and see what I come up with? Thanks for the replies guys [/QUOTE]
