[QUOTE="GimpyPaw, post: 2594101, member: 122498"] I'm not done with this load workup yet, still seeking a good node. Here's what I've got so far: Sako AV 300 WM Norma 1x fired, water volume = 93.94 gr Shoulder bump .002, neck bushing .333 Berger 205gr EH Fed 215 M Retumbo work up: 79.5 80.0 80.5 ---> Selected this load for depth testing as impact holes from 80.0, 80.5, and 81.0 were all touching each other 81.0 c 81.5 c 82.0 c ---> Stopped here. Recoil was stout, but no other signs of pressure. There was a noticeable jump in recoil from 81.5 to 82.0 Seating depths off lands: (Starting length limited by magazine length) (6 rounds each depth, 3 shot groups at 100 yds) .080 .101 .122 .143 ---> Best group at .83" and .97" .164 I'm going to fish around and see what I can find for a good node at .143, but that might not be until next season.
