    Down to the range! 9x rounds of 2206H at 42g,43g,44g with the SST seated 10thou of the lands. I usually do my ladder test at .5 increments but with the shortage of powder I decided not to.

    The best group I got was 1inch group at 43g.

    My question is if this was you what would be your next step? Bullet change? powder weight/brand change? seating depth change?

    cheers
    Whats your benchmark for accuracy with this particular rifle. This may already be the best it is capable of.
