OK,
Took the bull barrel 308 to the range today.
Lee C312-155-2R bullets, 13 grains of red dot.
Bullets sized to .309
100 yards almost shot gun pattern.
Very frustrated fired last 6 rounds at 300 yards just so not have to break them down when I got home.
Took 2 to get on target and last 4 you could cover with a 3/4 dollar bill.
Frustration even worse now.
Is it possible the bullet sleeps until out past 200?
Now for bass and Ian.
It is a 1-10 twist barrel 22 inches long.
Match chamber with little or no leade
No I didn't do a pound cast as I am a believer the , that is the best way in the world to mess up a barrel.
Putting a steel rad down a barrel and pounding on the end of it is just plain wrong to me.
Shoots 173 grain Sierra Match kings to point of aim at 775 yards which is as far as I have taken it so far.
Will hold a 2 inch group at 775.
Need all the advice I can get as have never in 40 years of cast bullets ever had this happen to me.
