[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3230114, member: 15054"] Savage Axis at 200 yards. Back in December 2015 below 20 degrees. Here is a picture with 3 fliers in it, .223Federal cases always gave me Fliers. Now I called one while it was being loaded, The round 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. 3 different loads of varget at 200 yards. My scope covers 2" at 200 yards..So that big X I could not see it. [ATTACH=full]136039[/ATTACH] Loads at 100 yards 17 degrees outside LC13 cases below. Fired just as quick as I could get back on target. [ATTACH=full]136040[/ATTACH] The bad part of all this above is at 55 degrees outside I could barely keep the groups under 1.25" at 100 yards. Varget does that to me when temps change. I hate using Varget. H4895 now in my .223. IMR 4064 in my .308 and 30-06 and .243. But IMR8208XBR is very good in .308 those last 3 powders keep group sizes the same when weather changes. At least in my guns with my loads. 60 gr A-max no crimp no cannelure and flat base. [/QUOTE]
