I made it to the range this past sunday, and tried three different loads, 6.8, 7.0 and 7.2gr of AA#5, with 115gr JHP from win. They all performed well, the 7.2's were still milder then the speer factory ammo I mentioned previously, still have not found a visual reason after going over them, they look and measure within spec, I'll just place them in a dark corner for later.

Anyway, of the three loads 6.8gr had a "slightly" tighter grouping, not by a huge amount, but since its less powder and performed well, thats what I will be going with.

Thanks for all the replies.
