Range report:
I was finally able to go to the range and test the ammo I reloaded. Nothing out of the ordinary as far as I can see. I just reloaded 30 more rounds to go back to the range with same parameters. I did install an adjustable gas block on the rifle, and closed it all the way so the rifle acts as a bolt action. It worked as described by the manufacturer, and now, I have nice brass to reload without dings or other damages. Had to replace the charging handle with an ambidextrous one to be able to cycle the bolt with my left hand to stay on target. So far, engaged steel at 325 yards, and plan to take it to the 800+ yards, later on today.
Thank you all for your wise suggestions.
