After months of being out of 178 Hornady bthp's I finally got some in. I had worked up some promising data with the last boxes I had. I went out to test .1 increments around the load I had worked up (with the new bullets) and my groups went from sub M.O.A. to A.K.47 M.O.A. Same cases, same powder, same primers, same trim length, same o.a.l. I'm stumped. I sampled some bullet weights (10) low being 177.5 high being 178.3 average being 177.9. I'd get a decent group, then...flyer! Before my best groups were 4 in the same hole and one next to it. here is what I'm working with...
Savage 10 fcp sr
178 gr. Hornady match
Federal cases T.L. 2.008 (fired twice)
WLR primers
Varget (<>44 gr.) C.O.L. 2.803 (have not played with depth yet)
Any ideas on what tree to start barking up would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
