[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 3562789, member: 3099"] That second load has mostly vertical stringing which could indicate barrel heat. Letting it cool a LOT longer between shots might give you better or worse results. Hell, that first shot flyer could have been the same too. I'd also look at cleaning your barrel, if it gets worse you know to "let it run", that's yet another node to consider. My personal opinion and it's only that, is that 300 yards is asking a lot from 7.62x39 in and auto. In a bolt gun it might get you there. You need lots of weight or velocity and the x39 doesn't really have either one of those. Not saying you can't do it, just that it may take a lot of work in a particular gun and something completely different may be required for a different gun. Keep at it and lets us know how it goes. :thumb: [/QUOTE]
