    Finally got to the range and 50 grain Vmax load, .388 MOA. I use Zmax and Vmax as the same and have a bunch of Zmax so I needed to find 'The load'. Was grouping 13/16" for 5 shots at 200yds. Had some other loads but the best they could do was .70 MOA. Barrel was getting a little warm is probably the only reason it was starting to do a string instead of a cloverleaf and a bit better than .388. 1st 3 shots before it started getting warm were closer to about 3/8" at 200yds.

    Going to be some very sad prairie dog families in May.

    Bummer no more Zmax available at the good deal.

    Seems like a year since I last went after PDs... and it's STILL 3 months away!

    I salted away a few thousand 50-Zs and have a couple thousand rounds loaded...
    and I feel the loss anyway..."bummer no more Zmax available at the good deal."
