[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2337147, member: 15054"] I found that some bullets group large, like your 1.5" at 100 yards and tighten up further out. Then i have had that flip flop on me. so testing at 200 is what i like to do now The 178 has a long bearing surface those seem to stabilize earlier than my short surface bullets. Some boat tail bullets i tried started grouping best when i was at or near max load. sometimes just over max and they came in really well. The 2156 sierra palma 155 in my 30-06 tightened up really nice with speeds of 3,176 FPS from my 22" barrel I did push them .5grain faster but groups did not improve..that .5gr more of H4350 was not cronied. Same deal with the .308 and that palma bullet, it liked speed...But tiny hole in and tiny hole out in deer and hogs.. so gave up on that round [/QUOTE]
