    Now that I seem to have resolved my posting issues to some extent it’s time for the last update on my first reloading exercise. Stunning day last week on the Monday so cruised down to the range and check sighted the rifle in with a three shot group. Apart from No2 shot which I knew straight away that I’d duffed. Felt the rifle shift on the rear bag as I pulled the trigger but back on track with a fourth. 1/2” group at a 100m so job on this load combination done and dusted.

    Also, as an academic exercise and to satisfy my own curiosity, ran five over the chrony. Spread was 47fps and average velocity was 2680fps so not exactly going to set the grass on fire but it’s a light rifle and makes it pleasant to shot. Proof will be in the pudding.
