[QUOTE="Rustytigwire, post: 4324970, member: 47974"] Started prairie dog hunting with a friend some years ago. I'm not the greatest but we ran out of reach with the AR platform. 1 day he handed me a 6mm Remington 700 pawn shop find. Spent some money on a bull barrel. I cut the chamber and threaded the receiver and muzzle end. Magpul hunter stock. YHM Phantom boat anchor suppressor. Then it was the rabbit hole of bullet powder combination. Best groups I could get were 1 inch. So many variables. H4350, 70gr Blitzking and 87gr Vmax. Went hunting. Reasonable but always want to do better. It has been two years maybe three. Today I went to Lex. RL19 and good ole Win 748. 70 Blitz King and 70 Speer. 5 rounds each at 1/2 grain increments. 42.5 to 44.5 No pressure signs at all. 3600 and 3700 fps. Looks promising. Time to trim some brass. Going to load some with 45 grains each. Hope to behave myself and get some better groups. Barrel mirage was interesting today. Enjoy.
