123 Lapua scenar, Howa mini HB - 7stw - 06-28-2022

I've always been a fan of Lapua products, brass, bullets, etc. I picked a box of 139, 123, and 108 grain. The 139 will be for the CM. Long story short, with once fired brass, and 123 scenars, and cfe223, with cci 450, I was able to put it on paper .
I shot three, before this, with 1/2 grain more, two in a hole,the other, 3/8 inch away.
But, I had just cleaned the gun, and it makes me wonder about a revisit.This group was with 30 grains. Thoughts?
I thought the camera icon would show up, so I could attach pic. Anyway, three bullets touching, perfect clover leaf, 100 yards

I’d walk back to my barn, load up at least another two rounds, and see if the 3 shot group was a fluke or the real thing. And probably do another 5 shot group when the barrel cooled.

I do 3 shot groups to find a promising load, and if I find one, I try it out some more. And your load certainly sounds promising.
