Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
A little chilly at Pawnee SC this morning and it's a ghost town. Started with my lightest of loads I brought and they are shooting faster than before. Hard bolt lift on the 2730 ish shots and ok lift on the 2705 ish shots. These should have been in the 2690 area. Groups very well and about .1 mil higher than my current load.
After I got home I inspected the brass. Wow it really flowed into the ejector pin hole about .002". Everything else looked fine except the primers pushed out real easy. Good thing I stopped and didn't trash any more cases. Reloaded a new batch to find a lower node, dropped 1.5 grains and stepped up .3 for my next outing.
Too bad the load was over a usable pressure since it did it's job on the target.

Went to Pawnee Ass Land today and finalized the proper (lower) charge weight for my OCW. I'm reading 2,687 avg. on the Magneto Speed now for MV with the H4895. I'm at 44.0 (Green) 44.3 (Red) grain weight and will settle on the this later. ES is 16 and the group looks good. The vertical middle row was with the Magneto Speed on and I was just getting MV for three charge weights. I was shooting with altered elevation and windage for each group.
