Looks like you've got a nice happy spot right there between your two top loads. Thanks for the post. Good info.

It would be interesting,to me anyways,to see how the load at 25.1 & .391" compares to the 26.7 & .380" in a shoot off as well as across a chrony.

Mike from Barrett Firearms was there with me and we notice the same thing and was wishing we had a chrony.

Thing is also I was testing new load with my 270 and groups just, well all I can say, not good. but I will post my findings this evening.
