    I thought i had the OAL on my 3 reloads right but yeah i did trim them a fraction long which i rectified straight away on the second attempt which still gave a shit group.
    I think i have it all sorted now and have learnt a bit in the process.
    Thanks for your really useful help!!
    What was the fix in the end? Difference in length? Charge?

    Not really sure, maybe the barrel was needing a dam good clean as it grouped after the second cleaning. The mag depth was always to long so that pressure spot was always there. I will do 3 more reloads and try them next days off.
    I will pull the 155 amax's to and trim them to size for a test.
    Been a great learning experience!
