Thread: What happens when your case has lots of room left?

Possibly just fell out of the accuracy node rather than being related to case fullness?

Deffinately had the same thing with my swede. TBH that rifle only suffers from an inconsistent shooter (me). It has no nodes. The only thing a swede hates is a slightly loose projectile like a prvi partizan fmj rn. Other than that one projectile i could consistantly nail tight groups if i concentrate.

But i did notice it got distinctly easier switching to 2213sc and filling up the case more.
