A little trouble with compression

RE: A little trouble with compression
Lumpy, I did test with the .060 vegi and .060 poly wads today...very good results! Yes, the brass was annealed. Have been doing this every 3 rounds and will now go to annealed on every firing.
Don, I did get out to test your load today. Not the best of conditions but they shot really well @ 200. POI the same with the 76.0 grains of OE 3 FG. Nice group, tight cluster in the lower left quadrant of the X ring and inside 10 ring. Will test again next week when we are expected to get some decent weather. OE 1&1/2 FG used the .060 vegi wad and the OE 3 FG loads used a .060 poly wad. Both shot well. Mini groove Money Bullet seated for slight thumb pressure seating and wiped between shots. Also tested the BACO 535 grain "Money bullet" (as cast weight was 526 grains) with 76.0 grains of OE 3 FG. and a poly wad. Needed just a whisper of elevation and right windage to stay in the group. Good day on the range!
