I don't think those are bad groups shooting on a windy day for that bullet at 200 yards, actually pretty good.
I want to try some of them but I am pretty flush on bullets right now and don't have enough time to test anything right now, Hell I need to get in the reloading room right now and load some. I have a new barrel I want to test out this weekend.
If you can not see the tyranny of having a gun ban enforced by men with guns... Then you fail to understand why the second amendment was written in the first place.

What mags are you using? I couldn't get them to feed in my Duramag's. Bottom of the hollow "point" jams into the lip.

its not bad at all but i know i/the rifle can do better normally i wouldnt have tested on a day like yesterday but sundays are my only day off so if i can this comming weekend ill probably shoot .4-.6-.8 and add a 32g load to also test
hoping to achieve the same level of accuracy as with the sierra 75g hp;s bottom goup is a 31.4g load

Nice. Have you played with seating depth yet. I would shoot the 31.4 and 31.6 loads again with the depth varied. Do 5 at +.015 and 5 at -.015. You got a good load but I think there is a little more there. My experience with 2000 mr is it likes the upper end so you could find the upper node your looking for. I like your results so far. I’ve only used Lever and CFE for the ARC But 2000 gave me good results in my 2 Valkyries. Trashed the brass but makes Bug holes.

not yet all 20 of those were loaded at the same oal , one thing i just relized was i accidently loaded those in freshly converted 6.5 gren brass so i suspect loading them now into fired brass will make a bit of a difference
