Went to the range again this morning to see if the rifle would repeat the same as last session. I stayed with one load throughout, the load I'm planning to hunt with.
300gr XTP/Harvester short blk
100gr vol BH209
Fed 209A primer
The rifle and breech plug were cold and clean. I popped 3 primers and started shooting 3 round groups. 1st group was a miserable 5in. triangle. Second tightened up a bit and third even more. The groups continued to slowly shrink till this is what happened on shot no. 13,14,and 15.
I'm very happy to have these results but does this mean I've got to shoot 12 rounds before I hunt? :lol:
I'm afraid to clean it and have to start all over.
