range results
these are the best groups so far from howa 1500 308 winchester 22 inch sporter barrel shot at 100 yard with rice bags set on 9x magnification and also a 270 wsm browning boss set at 12x. are these decent groups for hunting. these guns has nos modification. full length sized. 308 use fed match primer with 42.4 grain of rl15 2.840 oal and 270wsm use winchester mag primer imr4350 2.860 oal. ????how much does neck tension affect accuracy???? sometimes i have flyers and asuming that the loose bullet seating could be the cause. might consider sizing a few times per brass on next batch. should i expect atleast 2600 mv from 42.4 grain of rl15 with a 22 inch barrel and also 165 grain boat tail bullet?

Looks pretty good.
My buddy shoots the Howa in 7mm Mag. He really likes the rifle and says it was really good price.
