Went shooting yesterday..
My stand by hunt load had to be increased by 1 gr with this new batch of varget.
Winchester brass is best for this gun as the federal brass goes further left..
3 shots with win brass.. 2 with federal i did not count the 2 federal shots in my group.

of course my win. brass was a gonner before i even started..about a dozen firings through it..
Case head separation issues..
I need more winchester brass for sure...

Just a little wind yesterday.. bullet is 165 game king HPBT powder is 44gr varget.
primers are federal 210M.. .010" off the lands. crony read 2,662- 2,664-2,666 fps at 15 foot from muzzle.
226 yards.
