100 grn nosler cc

[tarrack]

started working with this bullet. Nosler data 2.245, loaded 30 still breaking in the mini howa. terrible groups more like patterns. Cfe 223 31.5 grns cci 450 3 times fired hornaday brass.
I checked my mag length max seems i can seat them out to 3.303 and still work and still not hitting lands. I will load 10 and shoot them tomorrow, one can hope.

Actually was shooting these with h335 this morning. I still need to go through the data, but I wasn't able to get good grouping until I was about 27grains of powder. Things came together after that.

strange i just purchased 1 lb of that powder last week. Ill give it a try. Just a side note. The factory stock for the howa is a piece of junk. The swivel stud on mine is pulling out from just having the bipod attached.....

The Benchmark seems to be a good choice, I'm shooting it in a 24" barrel gaser.

I wish I had saved the video, a guy shooting a bolt Grendel was over 30gr of Benchmark and was getting great groups and velocity.

I have had good luck with H335 in three different gas guns it was almost too easy to build up a load.

I had poor results using a bipod on either of my HOWA minis. I got much better groups off of bags. I agree the factory stocks sugg.
