Sherman light (not for drinking)

Made it out 2 more times today and it looks like the 270ss is about a 1/2 moa rifle with the good loads and 150 LRAB. The first 2 pics were this a.m. and the last 4 were pushing too dark to shoot. Forgot my targets too; thus the cardboard! Could have killed 2 moose though!:D The last 4 were .005" into the lands which seemed to shoot about the same. I have not tried anything very far off yet, so I may try to jump them a little when I get a chance. Tomorrow is scout for elk and hope to see a bear.......Rich

Got back out today to chrono and shoot the 150's. My plan was to test seating depths with the load showing good promise, but I decided to just leave things alone with hunting almost here. I think it is breaking in and shooting a little better all the time. Here are the results from today. I did not let the barrel cool after firing the first 3 with the mag speed so it may have affected the 3 shot group right after? First 2 shots were in the same hole. The 3 shots by the mag speed pic that were X'd out were from a different rifle.
