New lot of OE

[Kurt]

I guess what I'm curious about is the sight setting the same for the 1st group on target with both lots of powder, or did you have to adjust to get to the centerx before you made the other adjustments? That would be some indication of velocity difference, as the atmospheric conditions were the same as previous.

Oh. OK the sight setting for center is 40 Pt. elevation, zero wind setting on this rifle.
I had my 4 shot accuracy load with the old lot. I shot it several times over the weeks shooting it was never larger then 3/4 vertical 2-1/4 horizontal. I shot that group several times during the week.
I started with this load yesterday with the new lot just for trigger time at the range and I shot four five shot groups and they were all the same around 4".
Last night I was going to load 120 rounds for Lodi using the old lot but it turns out The powder left in the magazine was 3F and some 1.5 OE and 1.5 KIK. This leaves me with a 1/2 can of the old 2F OE and I don't have any loads for the powder I have. Time is getting short for next weekends match to get a load worked up. The 1.5 KIK has shot well in the .44-100 Rem ST so I will use it in the .44-75 with a reduced load of the same compression and head to the range as soon as the rain lets up a little.
