[QUOTE="DUNEZRUNNER, post: 873501, member: 69037"] I appreciate all the responses. I am not sure what I am going to do with this gun. When I last had it out I could not find any consistent loads for the gun. The best load was only shooting at about 2850 FPS with the 130 gr bullet. I should be at 3100-3200 in this gun. It wasn't showing pressure signs, but was at the book max so when I made up my test loads that where I stopped. I am going to make some more up from the current best load and work up until I start seeing some pressure signs. I did notice that there was a lot of soot on the necks of the brass. It has me thinking that I am not building enough pressure to seal the chamber or I have chamber problems. This gun has me frustrated as I was supposed to use it on my Elk hunt on the 20th. I just can't get a group. I ended up ordering a 338-378 Weatherby mag for the hunt as I just cant trust this one. thanks Thomas [/QUOTE]
