Hey Guys,
I loaded up 20 rounds of .308Win using the following recipe.
Rifle:
I was quite surprised to find my cold barrel shots printing 3" high. Follow up shots were good. I'm zeroing for 200 yds, target at 100 yards. My shots should be 1.5" high at 100. I gave it 20 min between my initial 3 shots. The shot again. Exact same results.
So, my question for the reloading ballistics gurus. WHY?
