I had my highest x-count of 177-5X using those at 600 in Sacramento during the '05 regional there. Granted, the score was nothing to write home about, but there's a reason the F-Class nationals were held there last year.

I do admit to choking a 7 under pressure since O'Connell was scoring for me.

I actually just did a clean swap with my Sierra 80 load: 24.5 gr. RL15, RP 7.5, Winchester brass, bullets jumping 0.02". I know some people like to load them like a vld, but they seem to take jump as well.

I have no idea what the speed is. I just used the club match on Friday to establish a zero, which actually wound up being 3 clicks less elevation than my Sierra load.

ETA: wylde chambered 1:8 Lothar Walther

hmm, upon further investigation, I found out I shot a 189-5X a couple months later in April at the leg match in Coalinga using the Sierra 80 load...

same x count, but higher overall score: better wind reading, or just lucky? or both?
