Gunscrubber on the inside of the necks seems to have done the trick.
In better news, I turned out a 0.79" 100 yard group yesterday!
I had been using Nosler 120 BT and 129 ABLR and starting loads to see if I could get any decent groups as Nosler was suggesting lower end loads were more accurate in their test barrel. I got some 129 Hornady SP in the mail Friday and got the same results. Averaging 1.75" groups with 8208. Well, I bumped up another half a grain with that Hornady bullet and it tightened right up.
Now to do a ladder with both 129 bullets and see if I can get better with the Hornady and to see if I can find what the Nosler likes.
I finally have some hope for this BCA.
