Second 5 at 100. The only thing I did was to change to a known powder and I adjusted the scope toward center.

450 BACO #431ADJ wrapped with 9# Paper Mill 100% cotton Onionskin
.060 LDPE wad
76.0 grains of Goex 2f
The above described brass
Federal 210 LR primers
3.310" COAL, This leaves the bullet seated .200 in the cases with about .060" compression.

   

Number 2 is over there to the left again! Other than that it's a step in the right direction.

Next up, Federal 210 primers. I have often used 215 primer with this Goex so I may try that yet today.
