Okay more data with hand loads, all 3 shot groups @83 degrees. Waited 15 mins between groups for barrel to return to cool to touch. Real good results with 85gr HH, TAC @2.166 coal. 30gr 2801 .7moa SD 11, 30.5 2850 .6moa SD 7, 31 2890 .8moa SD 8 some pressure with ejector marks. Going to look more around that 30.3 to 30.7 area. Wanting this for main hunting flat shooting load. Plan to try 99gr HH too.
120gr eldm with cfe 223 @2.245 first group one hole like .2moa 30gr 2460 SD 5, 30.5 1.2moa 2500 SD 18, 31gr 2.25moa 2550 SD 16, 31.5 1.2moa 2588 SD 12 very faint ejector marks. Will play more with that 30gr area to make sure its a stable load.
Still no failures and gun will shoot no doubt.
