    I would go with the 55.5 grain load and if I wasn't happy with the grouping, ay with seating depth. I would shoot 3 shot groups at each seating depth, maybe 4 if you want to get carried away with plenty of time between each group. 18 is not a large extreme spread to me, perfectly adequate for shooting very far.

    It's a hunting rifle and you only want to use it out to 300 meters right?
    So how tight do you need the groups to be?
    Micky Duck and rewa like this.
