Finished with load testing, no photos as the photos are over the maximum size allowed. I'll see what I can do to reduce the size of the photographs.
All groups at 100 yards and I'm sure a person better skilled in benchrest shooting could have improved things a wee bit.

Next step to chronograph top loads and settle on a 130 and 140 grain load. Very happy with the way the rifle has turned out.
