some good advice here guys thank's.

Interesting info on the primers Unclenick, I started priming this load on my LnL but it did not like my Winchester cases and I ended up using the RCBS hand tool on it, however there were 4 or 5 that I started on the Hornady but finished with the hand tool

as you can see from the range sheet there is not a lot of rhyme or reason although the groups with the higher standard deviation in a couple of the groups also had the higher group sizes

I would love to get these to shoot consistent .5 groups. I shoot the .204 for long range practice becasue it is so inexpensive even with the SBK's but getting the bullet cost down another couple of cents each would be even better

Code:


22.0 RL10x     2.00 OAL     3637 FPS        SD 65 FPS        .6 group
22.5 RL10x     2.00 OAL     3721 FPS        SD 18FPS          2 inch group with one a inch to the right and another 2 inches low
22.7 RL10x     2.00 OAL     3735 FPS        SD 22 FPS        .5 group
23.0 RL10x     2.00 OAL     3754 FPS        SD 34 FPS        .5 group 4 were in .2 range with one flyer
23.2 RL10x     2.00 OAL     3757 FPS        SD 88 FPS        .8 group
23.4 RL10x     2.00 OAL     3764 FPS        SD 94 FPS        .9 group
23.6 RL10x     2.00 OAL     3774 FPS        SD 22 FPS        .7 group
23.8 RL10x     2.00 OAL     3842 FPS        SD 85 FPS         1.0 group
24.0 RL10x     2.00 OAL     3875 FPS        SD 22 FPS        .3 group
24.2 RL10x     2.00 OAL     3878 FPS        SD 22 FPS        .8 group
