Hey rick523 what was your OAL ?
Chronos can be very finicky . Here's the chrono I want..
Of course it's going to be about $500.

RockZ, Thanks, I switched from GM215M's to CCI250's. I will say this though I get the opposite results with my 300WM it prefers the 215's.
Caleb, my coal is 3.519 but I load off the ogive giving me a base to ogive measurement of 2.820 and bullet is seated .001 off the lands. I had my rifle throated for the 215 bergers specifically.
Load info
Hornady brass,cci250 primers, 68.7grs. H1000
2995fps
ES of 11 and
the SD was 5.

Caleb, It is a magneto-speed V2. About half the cost of the one RockZ is looking at.

Caleb, It is a magneto-speed V2. About half the cost of the one RockZ is looking at. Easy and quick to set-up,no sunscreens, and very accurate.

Im working on seating right now. Im at 65.2 gr. H1000 and 3.360 OAL and I moved the target to 200 yards and shot this group today with a 10 to 15 MPH 2 O clock wind.(there are three shots the one on the far left is a hole punch for the three ring binder) any thoughts?

Caleb, good looking group I'm guessing the one that is out a little bit could be attributed to wind, looking at where it is. I would try shooting again when the wind lays down a little or you can get a 12 or 6 o'clock wind. When I am testing for groups I really like to have no more than a 5mph wind if at all possible or I will set up with it at 12 or 6 I prefer 6 but that is just me. Like I said very good group.

Ya the wind snuck up on me kinda fast! ..so if I get that one into the other two..that would be a load that I could expect with the VLDs ? And it would be one that I could play with at 800 and beyond ?
