Well started testing loads today

Post by headshotkiller »

Not sure on what powders, primers or all the reloading specs....

But do know my gun shoots 40 gr v-max groups pretty good, 32 v-max badly, 32 gr Nosler just as bad, and 24 gr Hornady ntx superbly....

Still have 3 more bullet combos to try out!
40gr V-MAX
