    Problem now solved!

    Changed from 190 to 185 Berger VLD hunting's (0.3BC Drop)
    Reduced load back to 44gr, and started working up in 0.3gr increments. 45 shot sweetly
    Got a muzzle break from Waitaki Engineering $220 fitted
    Got a 20moa rail and warne rings from Waitaki as above $180 from memory
    Stole one of Gimp's stock packs

    Don't have any photos, but from what I remember, it shoots well now. Claimed 1 tahr and 2 deer with this load. It seemed to do pretty well at 300m ish, haven't tested it close up yet. Also went better than I did at the LR shoot, and offended all those who shot beside me.

    Cheers for the advice though tussock, you're most likely right! The muzzle break's made it managable to shoot more than 20 rds in a sitting now

    Not manageable to be anywhere near, though.
