43.5grn RL19 115 Nos. BT 2.88", CCI 200's. Even more accurate, but just by a hair, .6-.7 moa, consistantly over several months of shooting.


How far off the lands are you seating those?


With the 117grn Hornady I was hitting the lands at 2.92". I ended up at 2.788 becasue the Hornady Custom factory loads shot amazingly well at that length. I started hand loading specifically to duplicate that factory load. Since then I've tried a bunch of loads and components in the Roberts, but that 117 interlock is still a killer load.
