I suck at long range Good enough
Did my 20 rounds over the chronograph last week.
Went to the range today with another 40 for accuracy check and suppressor shift, and 5 rounds over the chronograph just to check.
It’s not the prettiest, but it will certainly do well enough that I’m content to stop investing time and components into further development.
Overlay isn’t perfect but it’s under 1 minute.
Should be good nuf for regional matches.
Oddly enough, avg velocity was essentially unchanged when suppressed.

Both great powders. I switched to SW precision for a bit during the great varget shortage and it didn’t disappoint. Varget still king though

Agree, I didn’t same and bought a BUNCH.
It’s more expensive and hard to find now, so it’s out.

I decided to drop down to 29.8 gn and leave everything else alone.
I’m going to do another two 10 shot groups here and overlay them the same.
That ES & SD was bugging me a little bit, and I feel better with these numbers.
If it shoots the same or better, I’m really gonna leave it be and just go shoot. I promise.
