    I did a bit of .223 load testing using 2206H / 53gn Vmax today .
    Right from the beginning something just didn't feel right with my shooting position , I fiddled around with my rear bag etc and in the end just started shooting .
    I thought it must just be me but every shot just felt off .
    I finished shooting and was packing up when I noticed that my Harris Bi-Pod was on backwards
    No wonder I was struggling , every time I loaded into the Bi-Pod the legs moved .
    Anyway here is a pic of the target , now I'm dubious about the results .
    Interestingly the group at the bottom has 5 shots , 1 round of each powder charge , this is something I've started doing , to see how much difference in group size you get with a variance in charge weight 0.8gn in this case .
    Butt...... I just don't know how valid this test was so I think I'm going to repeat this test with the Bi-Pod correctly mounted

    FALL IN LOVE WITH THE NUMBERS , NOT THE IDEA
