[QUOTE="Alan Griffith, post: 104664, member: 4686"] Ok, my head is hurting from digesting all your advice. I see the relationship between shots 8 and 9 (59.5 gr), assuming that 9 really was blown that far left by the gust of wind. Abinok, Sorry to say it may take some time for me digest your discription of "3 of this and 9 of that to get 15". Roy, Bug holes and velocity! My H4895 load keeps putting 5 into 3" or less at 300 yds. Problem is the velocity is running only 2665. Yes it will kill an elk but I'm feeling anxious about getting 2700 plus and 2750 would really make my day. I too note the minimal vel increase between 7 and 13. Too bad their scattered all over the target. Are you saying that because of the low ES between 11, 12 & 13 I might consider re-shooting those and ignore the scatter gun effect? I believe the reason I can get such fast velocities with this 22" barrel is my OAL is 3.540"; seated quite far out and against the lands. Thus the extra room for more powder and less pressure. I have no doubt I could top 2800 and really not see any .0006" (my self imposed max based upon the article by Rick Jamison last yrs Hodgdon reloading annual) case head expansion until 62-63 grains. Ok, so 200 yd groups of 3 to 5 of 59.5, 60.1 and 60.8. I think [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] Big Al Oh yeah!
