I see they're back in stock in a factory Hornady Match load now. That would be the way to go for a non-handloader.

Not to turn this into a discussion on velocity consistency, but I'll round my thoughts off by noting that hunters shouldn't be terrible concerned about it (at all). At ranges out to 400 metres,...

To understand experienced or likely terminal results, we can take predictive (speculative) approaches, or empirical observational approaches using data from actual performance. On the latter, the...

The MPOI of my "cold shots" group vs "hot bore" is 2.6mm different for windage and 0.1mm different for elevation at this stage. (0.026 and 0.001 mrad - .25 and .01 of a click). That's as close to...
