    My 338 Lapua blast blew the front off my F1 and rolled it around a tad I managed to fit it back together still working but I use a Magnetospeed now seems simpler but it has affected my grouping and point of impact.

    I modified mine with a 480gr round ball at 1200fps. Rolled the bugger in the dirt too... On comparison to all my previous loads, it's still spot on and I still use it. Name:  IMG_1726.JPG

    Sure does. Amazing as it still reads consistent to my loads.

    I bet when that happened the numbers disappeared off the display, and "OWW, YOU BASTARD" flashed on instead
