[QUOTE="Jcalder, post: 4536555, member: 12150"] if I remember correctly he said it was loose but not terribly bad. After I seated one it was tighter than I remembered last week. I'm gonna guess I was used to the optima. Those were tight. The Parker loaded easier than the sst. Except one. I might could have got it down the barrel but it woulda been tight. I should get the stuff you sent Monday or Tuesday. Planning on trying them out as well. I'll do a report on those as well. At this point I'm not truly sold on anything. Hard to argue with my group but I know the Barnes is a reliable killer within my hunting range. The Parker showed promise but it wasn't as good a group. I'll probably get some and play with them a bit. Lots of options and learning to do but at least I've got something I can use for now. While it has been a huge learning curve for myself I do plan to continue to do range reports. From an economical standpoint the cva or similar break action is the way to go. But I haven't really found a ton of info. Or in my case I had slow velocities with proven loads. I hope this data helps in the future. Even Jerry commented that he thought my chrony was off. I don't know what his velocity normally is but I did get to shoot one of his customs[emoji2]. Woman don't know it yet but this won't be my last smokeless Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
