[QUOTE="dwinmeade, post: 1888004, member: 111253"] As I promised, I would show you fellows my shooting targets using the formulas that you shared with me. Here is my first picture of shooting 16 3-shot rounds, along with a tabulation of the results. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20200426_093824.jpg"]190157[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="20200426_113506.jpg"]190158[/ATTACH] [U][I][B]Legend:[/B][/I][/U] "Owner"...if marked "?"...I didn't record where I found it or the owner of the formula. "[B][U]BINGOs[/U][/B]"...are under .2000" groups, most definitively worthy of a 'do-over'. "[U][B]AGAINs[/B][/U]"...are +/- .2500", worthy of a 'do-over'...most have a 'flyer' because of me. Correction on Target-#1...used "50g-NBTip", not "50g-ST". [B][I][U]Bullets:[/U][/I][/B] 50g-NBTip...Nosler Ballistic Tips...#39522. 52g-SHPBT...Sierra Hollow Point Boat Tail...#1410. 53g-HHP-Hornady Hollow Points...#2250 55g-ST...Nosler Silver Tips...#51031. 55g-Vmax...Hornady V-MAX...#22271. [B][I]Commentaries:[/I][/B] I shot 3 shot rounds (9 shots total) and then I let the barrel cool for 10-15 minutes. I was shooting off a Caldwell bipod and a sand bag (butt end). All were 100 yard shots. Target-#2...just barely close enough for a 'do-over'...2590"...(something like a wild card position in the 'play-offs'). ([B]RL17[/B]...who would have guessed...'[U][I]lewwetzel[/I][/U]' did! Target-#5...the flyer was my futile attempt for 3-shot, a single hole group (choked)...[B]#2 group of the day![/B] ([B]Varget[/B] rounds...all POIs were almost a perfect, center hole shots.) Target-#6...the flyer was my futile attempt for 3-shot, a single hole group (choked). Target-#7...first shot was high, next 2 almost touched...on hold...too many others needing a 'do-over' first. Target-#8...single hole was my first & third shot. (Why do I seem to choke 1 out of 3 shots?) ([B]H380[/B] rounds...the go-to 22-250 powder, I'm told.) Target-#9...aww crap...Bruce Hodgdon's original 22-250 H380 formula hates my Dimension. (Hint...it was all me...see #9a.) Target-#9a...redeemed myself...[B]#1 group of the day[/B], edging out [B][U]RL17[/U][/B] by a 'nose'. Target-#12...when 2 out 3 shots are under .2500"...worthy of a 'Do-Over'. Target-#13...2 shots touching...[B]#3 group of the day![/B] Target-#14...target shows 1 hole...I found one shot below the target...I couldn't find the third shot...I looked at the target hole under a magnifying glass, looks like 1 hole. Because I can't conclude what's what...it's worthy of a 'do-over'. [B][I]Conclusion:[/I][/B] I'm a on-call trucker who hauls food products at any time, weekdays or weekends. The follow-up shooting listed below could take from 1-4 weeks depending on my work schedule and the weather. My next shooting will be for groups, shooting 3-shot groups, three times to get an average (9 shots total)...for each formula tested... "[U][B]BINGO[/B][/U]"...numbers 1-3 first...followed by "[B][U]AGAIN[/U][/B]" numbers 1-4 second. I am hoping one formula out shines the rest... My final shooting will be for POI, probably 1" high at 100 yards. Link back to the [B][I][U]Master[/U][/I][/B] 22-250 Loads thread...
