[QUOTE="liltank, post: 473682, member: 13275"] I have a 1:12 that is shooting very well with 178 Hornady BTHP. That can be found in their Superformance Match grade ammo. My smallest to date is .219" (42.4grn Ramshot TAC) but can't tell you the velocity as I have not had a chance to use a Chrony because of the weather. My next load is 44.0 grains of RL15 @ .377" All these are shot at 100yrds. You just have to pick a bullet, find a powder or two that you potentially want to use and try them out. Start low and work up in .2 or .3 grain increments. As it looks like you are shooting mostly factory ammo, Try the Superformance hunting and match, Black Hills match, Federal Gold Medal Match, Nosler Custom, and Cor-Bon. All are good ammo. See if you can latch on to any M118LR mil spec ammo. Same stuff snipers use. It utilizes RL15 powder, and 175 SMK's. Tank [/QUOTE]
