[QUOTE="ForgivenAll, post: 2779929, member: 30897"] I have two Waypoints. I bought the 6.5PRC for a longer range hunting rifle and the 6.5CM for NRL Hunter. They're good looking, lightweight, and have great features but... I want to love them but I just can't get them to shoot well. With the PRC I can get several loads to print two holes touching and a third opens it up to +/- 1 inch. Didn't matter if it was 140 or 147 ELDMs or 140VLDs. The Creedmoor is kinda doing the same thing. Maybe just a bit worse. I haven't tested as many loads with that one yet. It has me questioning if my fundamentals are lacking and maybe I am just not driving these lightweight rifles properly. Although I have won a couple of the NRL Hunter matches in the factory division with my tack-driving Tikka (which is marginally heavier, but by no means am I shooting a 21 lb PRS match gun in 6 Dasher), I don't want to overlook the possibility of this being a loose nut behind the trigger situation. So, this weekend, I'm hoping to borrow a buddy's lead sled and try to isolate induced shooter error. Looking for input and also letting you know that I will give you an update when I get a chance to shoot this rifle in a fixed apparatus. [/QUOTE]
