Small sample, but might be something to it.

Easy to swap any individual shot between targets and see lotsa 2 in 1 out.

If you don't have a gauge to check runout, roll them across a piece of glass or a FLAT surface and watch for tip movement. Pick out the best of the bunch and see how they shoot.

But at 56 it started flattening the primers and i know primers are not the best way to go about pressure signs. So just for fun I took 3 cases to local LGS and asked some of those guys that been loading for a long time. Do these primers look flat they said that is warm. So I said that it is 1 grain below max still. So my question is. Is the chamber to small or to large that is causing this. This gun is about to drive me crazy.


Run 55 and seat deeper for the accuracy node. Maybe even try a flat base. Less powder for the same result is never a bad thing.

For giggles and discussion 223 52 grain SMK 3 in 1 just out and left on #4 and a big pooch on #5.

What does more than 3 shots look like? Like 4, 3 shot groups?

How about the 5 sighters right before, seems like the load might work.
And I don't own a run out gauge either.

Do a 10-shot group if you are ready for a reality check.

3-shot group is not enough to tell the truth...unless maybe they are all touching.
