Thread: Load development/Gun Smith

Yea have had 2 others have a few shots with the factory ammo and results were very similar to mine, wouldn’t say they were experienced shooters..
No suppressor or brake, have thought about the removable brake option.

Have been shooting it of a bench rest set up that I feel very comfortable on, the plan was to find the load then switch to my bipod/pack and sight it.

Have lightend the trigger right up and feel it breaks real nice.
Been taking my time letting it cool between shots and groups.
Cheers or the tips dannyb will try them.

Started with eld-x and got thick copper fouling at muzzle so copper cleaned it, have switched To Sierra TGK since.

Have recently only been cleaning it after a few groups using hoppes 9 and patches then a dry patch or 2 before firing and normally fire a fouler to be sure.

I’m not doubting I’m the problem but given the range is hard to get to too test loads and shooting techniques it’s a pain with other more important commitments at moe, especially if it’s my novice reloading skills or rifle is playing silly buggers

Cheers for the advice/tips guys
