Since I have nothing to do but be miserable I worked up a very accurate load using the 45 gr. Hornady Hornet bullet and IMR4895. I also did the same using the Hornady 52 gr. match HP. I am now completely happy with the accuracy I am able to get when miserable, just under an inch for five shots and I can't wait to see how much it improves when I can easier control my breathing and I don't have a headache! That said the Mark Xpro trigger has got to go. It is not consistent, not matter how you turn the adjustment allen screw it is the slightest bit creepy and the little
click and then the rifle going off just doen't get it. Will order a Trigger Tech primary trigger or a Timney soon. I did get a couple of four shot groups in the half inch range and then the horrid flyer. This has turned into more of a self test than a rifle test.
