    Outstanding!

    Ok so like I said it looks f’n crazy and I almost wanted to pack up. I forgot I moved my scope up and my zero even for 168 gr bullets was a touch low. Doesn’t bother me just so long as I can get it close to the dot and can get consistent groups... so the first two groups were SUPER low and I wasn’t happy with them. I had some fouler bullets handy so I tried rezeroing in the middle (emphases on tried). I got as close as my frustrations would allow and continued with testing. Load #3 wasn’t bad. And I was close to zero with the dot so after that I adjusted. Next group went left and a little high and mixed in with the foul shots but I was able to identify what was what because I marked them just in case. Then comes the best group I had all day. Super stoked and tried to keep the positivity and finished out my testing. Overall I’m very surprised and happy. Before I had trouble with 178gr eld-x and hadn’t pursued anything heavier. Questions concerns comments?

    Great shooting Holland. I’m one step closer to trying mine. Just waiting on scope rings now.

    Thanks! I figured I’d give it a go while you were getting set up. I’m happy and impressed with these and wish I had a place further than 100yds to shoot. I hope you see similar results

    Gonna play around with seating depth using 40.2gr Varget. Increments of 5thou from 15 off the lands to 30. Finishing up what I had for brass (keeping track of how many times fired, this will be 3rd time on my Lapua brass) ignore the shitty load block... I used a hand drill for the holes and they’re a little wonky. Router jumped on me for the “bullet tray”.

    I’ve got my scope mounted, test loads made. Hoping to get some range time this Sunday. Curious to see how you seating depth test goes.
