Did that a couple of times in the weekend of my bonnet for the first three shots with the 22-250Ai with 75gr amaxs (well one like it and one close) but it was bloody hard getting five shot groups like it of the bonnet, Mind you I wasn't let it cool between shots either as I was just testing some loads quickly, Forgot the table so couldn't use the chrony...so just banged them off quickly and one load looks to be a keeper

No point waiting for the rifle to cool each time between shots to much as that is not how it happens in the feild.... Might get the tiny little group but at least the first three must stay tight..... and up here there is F/all rabbits so you dont shoot many more than that in quick repitition so this rig has a lighter barrel.... But it does seam to open up after the first three.....or my shooting turns to shit

A couple of the shots the bypod slid on the bonnet but still happy enough with the load testing to load a bunch for now, will try another powder at some stage for max speed but this will do the owner of the rifle as it shoots further than he can see the rabits with the naked eye.
