[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2071761, member: 15054"] I have the same problem with my .308 when i use a projectile with a short bearing surface. By short i mean under .370" for the .308 In order to get the tight groups i would need to be at max or past it. Played with the sierra 155 palma matchking #2156 and used it in .308 and 30-06. High BC short bearing surface..had it flying at 3176fps from the 30-06 and great groups..shot it with hotter loads and groups did not improve much and got sticky bolt so backed off to the 3176 load did not chrony it in the .308.. but was plenty hot for sure..... Good groups but sucked on hogs and deer..small hole in and small hole out. yes i know! I no longer use that bullet for anything. [/QUOTE]
