Great write up! It was an awesome adventure and getting there and back again was an achievement in itself for me. I won't forget that last steep section of the walk/climb back to the hut for a while!

In my experience, once you start seeing erratic velocities you are passed having stableoafs and likely over pressure for that particular load combination in that rifle. Back it off.
