I'm actually loading and shooting these groups and updating this thread by the hour lol. I changed bullets to a Berger OTM 130gr. Stayed with H4350 and shot the below groups which the tightest group was the lowest charge 42gr. Followed by the next tightest group was highest at 42.8.

Now we're talking. Roll on my dude. You've got it in the bag now.

Your scope looks awful close to the barrel

 

[Trappernewt]

It's close but not touching. You can easily slide a folded index card between barrel and scope bell

140 gr eld 41.5-42.0 gr H4350 fed gmm 210 prob about .040 off. That is the creedmoor secret sauce. It is the original load by Hornady. I have not seen a creedmoor that won't shoot well with it.

If I load more @ 42gr. with the 130 Berger and they shoot consistently like that I am not changing a thing. Lol

The thing people forget to mention about "hornadys load" is that you dump the brass in the trash after the 3rd firing because the pockets are gone.

Their brass is not great but I did get some during the shortage and it's held up ok. I've lost count but it's more than 3. Closer to 10.
