Here are my Groupings testing different powder charges. First shots with my handloads!!! This is out of my .308 at 100 yards.

Then the next weekend I adjusted seating depth with the charge that gave me the best grouping.

I am pretty sure I pulled the flier on this one.

I am having a lot of fun with handloading. I want to give a shout out to Thor447 for his help in getting me the information on what I would need to get started and allowing me to learn from him before I even started loading.

I am using Federal cases from the Gold Medal Match that I previously shot. CCI 200 primers, 43.5gr of IMR 4064, and 175gr SMK bullets. My riffle seems to like .02 inches of the lands.
