    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.
