[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3741471, member: 15054"] Here is another what the heck is going on for ya. My older .308 had a sweet spot in temperature it was when the barrel reached 80° f. And stayed until 105° f. Below that the groups were a little larger and over that were a little larger. When I made loads like you have made I shot them "Round Robin" Instead of shooting all of the 46.0 one aft the other I would shoot a 46.0 then 46.2 and 46.4 and so on. This eliminates any barrel heat or carboned barrel messing with a certain load. Of course I made different spots on paper to shoot each different load at. Enjoy and keep us posted. [/QUOTE]
