[QUOTE="26Reload, post: 2820759, member: 99519"] Finally went to the rockpit..... 3 rifles.... ....22Nosler....which I bought a lot of new ammo from Nosler to shoot up..for the brass....unfortunately the new ammo was 2.5moa at 100yds....but I will shoot all 250 up before reloading.... ....The newest build..65284Norma...just shooting some thru the barrel for breakin..up to 20 rds thru now..shot last 3 shots into 3/4" or less..while siting in... .....the shortened sendero barrel...from 26.5" to 22".....huge difference in barrel weight....the rounds it had been shooting at about 1moa....definitely opened up.... But I had to resist it as well...was able to shoot the original load to about 1.5"moa at 100yd...... Last 3 shots gave the 1.5"moa....not surprised on the difference...just need to refine the load again....but now the rifle is down to the same weight as the other 2 65284s....definitely carry it hunting....weight and balance much nice than a front end heavy rifle....
