Should have never let it go the first time, certainly not going anywhere now. Time to put some deer on it whilst I save up for a decent scope for it.
I'd like a leupy cds 3.5-10 or if one pops cheep...

Put 20 plus rounds through it this afternoon lets just say 3 shot groups like this at 100 yards were the result once I got my technique down pat.

Well I got some AR2206H from gunworks last week and set about loading up a new ladder
7 lots of 2 going up in .5gn increments
124556

As you can see I could get much more speed but settled on...

the 1:12 twist is a bit of a limiting factor for pushing the bigger high BC bullets at any kind of pace or so it would seem so far

they have a shit tonne of free bore, I haven't found a round yet that I can load even remotely close to the lands

no that's the factory 16.5" mine is the 20" stainless and as such is a 1:12

no I didn't apparently the "H" is better in shorter barrels

That's why I'm going to look at 2206h and h335

I'll grab some next week and give it a burn.
will try with 125gn accubonds and Hornandy 130gn soft points
would be great if I can get the 130gn soft points going as good (accuracy wise) as I...

What would be a good starting point for a ladder test ?

Feel free to make powder suggestions I have never loaded for 308 so not really up with what powders to use

Would you use the same powder for the 180grn Hornandy ? I assume for reds inside 100 yards ?

Why not just load my own ?

Fair enough, in reality it's unlikely to be shot past 300 yards

Ahh makes sense.

So what should I be looking for flattening of the primer ? Do the primers in the pic above look ok apart from the cratering ?

Huh ? Care to explain mimms2 ?
CCI large rifle primers, What should I be looking for for pressure signs in a single shot ? The crater was more noticeable on the hotter loads, the primer was starting...

Imr4895 and 3 rounds @ 100yards

Well after a failed attempt to get 155gn eldm to shoot I have had some success.
Big cheers to stug for putting me onto 125gn accubonds.
Did a small ladder test starting at 43.5 going up in .5...
