[QUOTE="bill123, post: 1007946, member: 69116"] All this came about because I had my barrel set back and wanted to see if the load had changed. I was previously using 46.4gr Varget w/ 155.5 Berger Fullbores. I was getting 3" vertical at 1000 yards. After the set back, I redid the OCW & chrono tests and both 46.2 & 45.8 were looking promising. Its a rare case that I get on a range greater than 100 yds so I am trying to get as much data as possible at 100 (realizing that it might be meaningless until I get on a longer range). I'm thinking that I may settle on 2 loads. The first would be for 100yds that just gives me the smallest groups so I can work on technique. The second would be my long range load. 45.8 is looking promising for longer range. 100 yard groups were not great at about 7/16" but I was getting .9" (5 shot) groups at 300yds. I put a couple of rounds on top of each other at 750yds but it was pouring rain and called it a day. Thanks again for the input. [/QUOTE]
