Warning some loads are over max and do not recommend these loads
One more thing this barrel has not been cleaned in over 170 round except a dry patch because of the coating on the bullet.
Wife interrupted my post to go do honey doooooos, so had to add my input at later time.
Some signs of high pressure at 28.2. My Encore needed a little help to open, primers where not as flat as some in the past but were cratered. The 28.4 my Encore needed a little more help to open and same as above.
The Wolf primers is what supprised me, on the load of 27.8 three of the five primers were very flat but not crated. I could tell when I shot these loads my rifle shot different and this occured only at this load and did not at the 28.00 load. I measure each load when dropped so I cannot explan the difference in pressure.
I'm also supprised with the group at 275 yds (except the first, then take out flyer), that they measured almost the same as the 100 yders.
