Finally sound the secret!
My first shot on a freshly oiled barrel was dead on at 100 yards. I swabbed clean and took #2 shot and knew if i didnt change something, i'd get the normal 2" group. I went ahead and ran a dry patch down the bore, didnt feel any crud so i ran one more dry patch down the bore and boom! Shot #2 and #3 were clipping!
I was shooting 260gr Noslers in the mmp-12 sabot ( short black?) They load firm on a squeaky clean bore but with the fouling in the bore, they load really nice. Also was using those dirty 777 primer.
6 clicks up to put her dead on?? Next outing will be with 300gr XTP's.
