i finally got to shoot the 123 SST's to see how they would do in my stick and I was pleased. I also shot some more of the 123 Nosler CC and some 123 Lapuas. It was a day of mixed results with some progress being made on the CC's and the SST was pleasing. The scenar looked great at 100 but was lacking at the 400 yard mark. On the 400 yard target I didnt measure but it is a 12" gong. The red dots are SST and the black dots are 123 scenars. The chrony wasnt working so i dont have velocities, though Im going to back down on the SST to 28.0grains and try it again with the chrono, as I was getting pressure signs with them at 28.4.
