[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2823561, member: 15054"] 200 yard results. Here is a picture with 3 fliers in it..Federal cases always gave me Fliers. Now i called one while it was being loaded..The bullet seated much easier than the others. Anyway Load #3 is 25.5gr Varget and load 1 is 24.5gr.#2 is 25.0gr. Now the combined group measures 1.365" if you discount the fliers. Load 3 measured .717" for 3 shots and shot 4 was a flier. Shots were one right after the other. Varget shots were performed after shooting a different powder in some other .223 loads i built..Could account for the fliers. But I think i have a winner for sure. Here is a picture of the 3 different loads of varget at 200 yards. My scope covers 2" at 200 yards..So that big X i could not see it. If i want smaller groups i feel i may need to step up from that Tasco. [ATTACH=CONFIG]52436[/ATTACH] 60gr Amax and i shot a deer neck with it today.That was a bow harvest deer that was already cleaned of all meat except for 5" of neck below the head for bullet testing and was being tossed in the fill ditch. Tiny hole in and golf ball exit.. I will stick with those bullets for now. Not real picky on seating depth either . As i seated them 2.305" and some 2.250" deeper with a load of BLC-2. All hit the same place at 200 yards [/QUOTE]
