[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3600720, member: 15054"] Guy at the Banner Road range was shooting store bought ammo and could not get good groups and going hunting to Colorado. He kept adjusting his scope chasing the bullet holes. I told him it was not his scope and let him shoot 3 of my Lapua cases loaded with one of my accuracy loads for my 2 .308 rifles. He shot a clover leaf group. I gave him 4 more rounds to take hunting and he gave me the almost boxes of store ammo. There 4 rounds left of that ammo that was not fired. Now onto some numbers. I went yesterday to Lexington WMA. First shot was FLS case then next 2 shots neck sized at the range. .730" center to center and the 3rd shot went right of the first 2. 168 Tipped Match King 41.5gr AA2495. The 3rd shot came out with a sooty neck. 4th shot went 1.37" away from the 3rd shot but went Left. I annealed the case. and It had a bit stiffer seating force for the bullet. 5th shot went Left and Higher. Cool down time. 6th shot went under the first 2. Over all case length grew .005" Picture.
