Now, sir, I don't think your response is very fair. I didn't say that I wouldn't try increasing the charge, I will. I was only sharing that I have been cautious about the charge because of concerns of a bullet fragmenting when pushed too hard- concerns I learned on this very forum. This is a discussion thread, so I was having a discussion!I can't help but SMFH at ppl when they come into the forum & ask questions about a problem they are having due to their inexperience, then they choose to not listen to those experienced ppl that reply to them with their best recommendation to fix their problem.
The first 5 replies ALL told you to increase your charge. Yet you don't seem to want to listen. What is your fear of that bullet fragmenting at any faster velocity based off of?
I get that the Hornady likely won't, I was just explaining my logic. If the bullet were likely to fragment, then maybe I would accept a 2.5 inch group over a 2 or lower since the accuracy is still good enough for sure to kill a deer. If that is less of a concern then I'll try a higher charge and see what happens. Or, as El Diablo said, maybe I'll switch to an all copper bullet if I am that concerned about trying to maximize accuracy without concernes of fragmentation.
