Thread: "Feather in my hat" 308win Featherweight load development

Without trying very hard, the last time I tried a load for my 243 lightweight, the kissing cousin to the featherweight (same action boring stock), it was only doing a 1 1/2 " 5 shot group and thats being generous.
Bedded too.
I will add that years ago I was of the very basic mold of sighting it in across the roof of the car and if it could hit a cigarette packet type target for a couple of shots it would be deemed mint.
Mild exaggeration but close.
It is bedded but no benchmark for a tight group
Didn't you get a tidy M70 lightweight from Ashvegas a few years back Danny?
