    These loads look very good, nice work! Really anxious to see how they do for you.

    Finally got to shoot these this weekend. They shot great, good group. But, they were 12-14" low at 50yds. I hope I have enough adjustment in my sights to get it up to the bullseye.

    So, I'm curious. Is/was the gun sighted in at 50 with other loads? If so, that seems really extreme to be that far low. I wonder what causes that kind of spread?

    I shot a jacketed load that was a few inches low. Based on the book, these loads should be around 1400fps. The jacked loads were around 2100fps. I'm guessing if I ramped the velocity up that would help.
