I have been tinkering with lighter bullets for reduced distances for 1 and 200 yards
My first Test I did 5 shot groups started with 47, 47.5 , 48, 48.5, 49 grains of IMR 4895 with speers 125 grain TNT. and the groups were not great but the group sizes were the same. 2inches at 50yards
I set the COL to 3.20. So Im wondering if I need to seat them deeper ? My new criterion barrel will shoot dime sized groups with 168s but im trying to reduce recoil with the lighter bullets for rapid fire stage
CMP forums guys claim they are shooting good scores with this bullet. But Im banging my head on the wall because I cant get them too group.
Im surprise they group well for anyone out 1/10 twist really fast for lighter bullets, Tying too keep them under 3000fps
thanks
