So...back to rock pit with loads of 75gr rl33 and 79gr rl33...
Nice cool morning again...a little later than usual but still only 36 in pit...set up and shooting....again 3 rifle rotation....except this time dropped lapua65 off table and first shot thru it at 400yds wasn't on paper.....but corrected and put back into firing line.....
As you can see there is a big discrepancy of velocity today...and it happened with all three rifle....that sucks....but shoot I did....
Results at 400yds...
75gr did not hold up at long distance test...but 79gr did well...im guessing(since I haven't measured) that it's close to 1/2moa....i also guess that 75gr went to 3moa...any words of wisdom as to shrinking that 79gr group more....other than more sturdy table..better sandbags..and better eyes looking thru the scope.......
Thx guys...kept me moving forward rather than back of closet with the rifle....
So I guess dilemma now is finding some more 140acc....
