[QUOTE="SilverbulletMAG, post: 1530237, member: 108181"] I have a cheap Winchester XPR 30-06 that is a picky SOB if trying to get anything below 1 MOA. After tinkering and spending more on test load development than the rifle alone, I found 2 powder/bullet combos that shoot half MOA fairly consistently now (with a light crimp). 1) 165 Accubonds behind 56.5-57 grains H4350 (does not like IMR 4350) in Winchester brass seated to magazine length (2.680" to ogive) resulted in 2818 avg, 23 ES and 11 SD on 10 shots 2) 190 Accubond Long Range behind 57.5 grains RL 19 or 55.5 grains Hunter (2615 avg, 10 ES and 5 SD). For reference, I have tried 7977, 4831SC, RL16, RL22, 100V, IMR4350, Speer 165s, 180 Accubonds, 212 ELD-X, 178 ELD-X and Partitions with marginal results. [/QUOTE]
