I have a stag lower with wilson combat barreled upper, 16". I built it as rifle for my kids to take game with but they prefer bolt actions, so I'm using it this year for south Tx whitetail. I will only be using the Barns TAC-TX 110 grn black tip bullet and maximum yardage is 130 yards.
I finally got a chance to do some shooting this weekend..I was averaging about 1.5-2" at 100 yards(9x optic). I had a red dot on this before and was zerod at 25 yards, so I never shot it for accuracy. While this is more than adequate for my intended use, I'd really prefer something better..
My load is 19.5 grains of W296 with a COAL of 2.245". Do you have any advice for load changes that might steer me on a more accurate path?
My nearest range is 1.5 hours away, so I can't easily try out a bunch of different combos, but I'll do the best I can.
