We shot 75 VLDs, 80 SMKs, 80 VLDS, 80.5 Bergers, and 82 Bergers through the 4G 8T Shilens.
At the last LEG MATCH at Bayou Rifles in Houston, Keith shot the 82s, had 200-11X at 6, Buddy shot the 75 VLDs and ripped it 200-11X, with the 10s forming a nice group around the X ring. Lee dropped a point on his first shot, posted 199-15X.
Loaded longer than mag length with those bullets, so all single loaded?? Thanks. MM

Yes, at 600 you are REQUIRED to single load, so you may as well take advantage of the heavier, longer bullets and push them way out there. I seat my 80gr SMK loads at 15 thou. off the lands.

Yeah, thought so, but didn't know it was a requirement, besides I'm pretty sure all of those bullets would have some of the ogive pushed into the neck if loaded to mag length.
