Shot the rifle again this morning. I still don't have any Rel. 22 yet but I'm planning on trying it.

I increased the H4831sc, 210 Berg. load but ,,,,hard bolt lift at 64 grains. I'm going to slide back to around 61.5grs for 2600-2650fps.

I also shot some 165 Nos. BT's with 58grs IMR4350,
3.365 was the coal. Not sure how far off the lands but way off. These were loaded for another rifle. Shot one 4 shot group and it went 1 1/4". I just wanted to see how it might shoot a regular old load.

I also tried some 185 Berger Classics. I loaded, (from left to right in the pics) 55,56 and 57grs H4350.

57 grains H4350, 185 Berg. = 2785fps (4 shots over a pro chrono) These were 3.388 COAL, about a .030 jump. I was using Win. cases and a CCI primer on these.
