    loaded 3 sets of 4 @ 49, 49.3 and 49.5 of N560, federal primers, lapua brass.
    screwed the die down and the first one came out at 3.147" Oal so thought what the hell gotta start somewhere.
    49gr group was just over an inch 49.3 put three in one enlarged hole and the forth cutting it. Fired the 49.5 mostly for effect.
    Went back a week later with 2x 5 shots with the 49.3 load, it still shot well. not as well as his first group but put that to nerves or the first one a damn fluke, but they still went in an inch easily.
    Scope was Vortex Viper PST 4x16x50
    He was happy as a sandlark so settled on that and loaded his brass.

    A bit pissed for me as I've been trying for weeks to get a load of N560 and Amax that will shoot that well out of my Sako but I can't.
