Took the rifles and crono out to work today and after some play on the Dirty Birds I tried to do some load and crono checking using my new Starline brass and to compare some new bullets and powder since my crono worked last time out...
I shot and tried to crono all in 10rd groups on 1" 4 dot grid targets numbered 1 to 8 as follows:
Group #1: Lovex SO62/Shooter's World Precision powder w/Sierra 150gr hp varmiter #2136
Avg fps: 2608 ES: 36 SD: 11
Group #2: Same as above with Berger 150gr flat base target
Avg fps: 2607 ES: 41 SD: 16
Group #3: IMR 4064/Sierra 150gr hp #2136
Avg fps: *forgot to turn on the crono
Group #4: IMR 4064/Berger 150gr fb target
Avg fps: DNR? (crono hot?)
Group #5: IMR 8208 XBR/150gr Sierra #2136
Avg fps: 2665 ES: 37 SD: 11
Group #6: IMR 8208 XBR/150gr Berger fb target
Avg fps: 2752 ES: 62 SD: 21
Group #7: H4895/Sierra 150gr #2136
Group #8: H4895/Berger 150gr fb target
*groups #7 & #8 crono results due to operator error: I forgot to check and delete the results from string #7 so these numbers are from both #7 & #8 combined:
Avg fps: 2672 ES: 80 SD: 23 *20rds
Charge weights are on the targets and all loads today but IMR 4064 were thrown.
Was getting hot, hungry and tired so packed it up and came home to type this...
