Thank you Sir, Load development has been going slow but I have a few loads starting to show promise. 36 grains of IMR4064 under 87 grain V-max gave me a nice 3/8" three shot group. I like when they all touch and these just made it. Now to repeat it.

40 grains of IMR4895 and 70 grain Nosler BT's are showing promise and chronyed an average of 3328 fps today. Now this was only a 3 shot average. Wind got bad and I had a garden to get to.

I think I will bed the action and float the barrel as that has not been done yet. The guy I got this off of said it was a shooter but to tell the truth I am not sure he shot it more than a few times.
