Data:
All groups are:
5 rounds
100 yards
Federal brass - Lee Collet neck sized
Federal 205 primer
Reloader 10-X powder
Shot from my Savage Precision Carbine in .204

I'm not going to experiment further with the Nosler 32gr bullets I have as I like the BC of the 40 grainers.
My intent is to load up 10-15 rounds of the groups circled and test them again and hopefully settle on a keeper load. But I'm new at this and would value input from the old hands on how to proceed from here.
I own a chronograph but won't drag it out until I settle on a keeper load - and then just to satisfy a curiousity and establish trajectory. The loads circled are hot enough that velocities should be just fine.
