[QUOTE="308plinkerVT, post: 2359588, member: 117224"] Looking simply at Hodgdon/IMR reloading site - you're below starting load data (site is admittedly using a Nosler projectile). I find this cartridge prefers a more full case of powder, work your load up some more before you jump on anything else. It's not a 22-250 or other notorious heavy burner,run a scope in it, see if anything obvious, thenif you've got the components give it another couple range trips. If still bad, a Shilen in 223 Wylde will open up your options down the road. Also: just caught the no local scoper known comment: Teslong scope (can be found on Amazon) is very affordable scope and wakes up smoothly with any laptop with front and back side cameras - if you get one like I have used the clarity is excellent as well - and less money than a barrel.
