[QUOTE="86alaskan, post: 1504405, member: 75933"] I can't recall the load right of hand. If you're having trouble reaching the lands with the pointy high bc bullets and not getting accuracy, you may want to step back to a more forgiving bullet. I'd try a sierra gameking either 225 or 250. The ogive is more rounded instead of a sharp point, which makes it easier to engage the lands at a shorter coal. You'll still get good accuracy and decent long range ballistics, just maybe a bit more drop. I belive my hornady load was somewhere in the 3.4 range, and I was very positive I was in the lands and short of the factory mag. [/QUOTE]
