[QUOTE="undeg01, post: 3271145, member: 26476"] [ATTACH=full]142944[/ATTACH] So, I think I found my load for the new Valkyrie. Pulling the bullet out a little to 2.200” COL tightened up the group with the Sierras, but seating the ELD-M Bullets deeper had the opposite effect. I also tested charges at .2 gr higher (24.8 gr), and the Sierras group stayed about the same whereas the ELD-M’s started opening up again. Here is what I’m going with... Hornady brass trimmed to 1.590” Remington 7 1/2 BR primers 24.6 of H4895 Sierra HPBT Match, 69gr COL = 2.200 No crimp 100 yds 69 degrees F Shooting due north with a SSE wind @ 4mph Velocity just a shave over 3000fps Two, 3 shot groups measuring... .422” .470” Avg = .446” [/QUOTE]
