    1,000 yard load test (white pasters only)



    Sac Valley with sling and iron sights:

    Lapua brass
    CCI BR-4 primer
    48 grains Varget
    Sierra 155 with .080" jump

    It was windy out there, but the load held good elevation.

    Standing? Even prone, I only wish I could shoot 1moa in the center of the target. My Xs always seem to be my flyers.

                Yeah, that's all that stands out to me too. Just ran out of talent on those two shots. That load tested at 3/8 MOA at 100 yards, with an ES of 9.2 fps and SD of 3.6 fps. I'm happy with the elevation consistency and will be shooting this load at Camp Perry in August.

                  Am I reading this right....... 1,000 yards shooting with a sling & iron sights, and getting those groups? If so, that's the best I've seen. This isn't April 1st is it?

                    First time I've seen ES/SD measured to the decimal point. What chronograph are you using that allows this level of precision?

                      Lets see, out of 14 shots, you got a score of 140/140 with 7X's. I would try another load. (the smilies are not working for me)

                        Probably the first two shots ,with a slight right to left wind.

                          Were those near the end of the string?

                            The reamer used to chamber his barrel MIGHT hold a clue as to what organization he is part of...
