Maybe also try 5 SSTs with a Fed 205M. I think this would cover all my bases and also finish this box of SSTs. If they all shoot poorly, its me/the stock, if the other two shoot better than the SST its the bullet, and so forth.
Change bullets or powder, some barrels just dont like certain combos!
Having said that, I used to do it that way too!
Lately Ive been trying it their way! https://youtu.be/QwumAGRmz2I
