    You in taupo Maca?

    @gimp @Pointer Heres something thats annoying, Went back to the range today, and on 3 different loads I shot 2 bullets in the same hole (like .1" off each other) and then there was a flyer an inch or so off!!
    only thing i can think of is the brass might be getting old now, I've had it for 3-4 years and probably shot them all no less than 8 times (Lapua) any other ideas
    I let the barrel cool a bit between each shot - in that bottom group the flyer was the first shot of the day.
