If you'd allow I've got some data that might be helpful to the cause.

Rifle: PF Bartlein Fluted barrel SAAMI chamber, PF bolt
Temp: 88* F
Humidity: 36%

Case: Virgin Hornady
Primer: CCI 450
Bullet: Nosler 129gr ABLR

After a Pressure Ladder test with different charges and a Ladder tests on different JTLs, I settled on the following OAL/COL/JTL and it seems to have made a significant difference.

Chapel Hill TN 150812
1.626" OAL
2.285" COL
0.145" JTL

CFE 223 Powder (gr) / Velocity (fps)

300 Yard Ladder.
I believe 29.5gr was a jerk by me. 30.7gr was just off the target to the left.
29.8gr is 1.5" from 30.1gr.


The 8 to the left were the ABLR brass.

Thanks Cory. That's more good data added.

Your Bartlein is a 16" tube-- correct?
