Scope held zero for fifty rounds today of my accuracy loading . Five to re-sight it in , and shot the rest at a somewhat hurried pace to see if I didn't have a heat issue with the barrel last time . Shot on the money printing a .2 , a couple of .3s , and .4s five shot groups for my last five target sets . Barrel too hot to touch when I was through . All adjustments were on , and cranked on the knobs and back . Will box test it next session to be sure with the same loading .

I'm leaning toward the extra OAL to ogive . Wouldn't think an extra .015 - .020 thousandths into the lands would make a good shooting rig , print like that . Will be sure to retest in more depth with the fodder made with the factory seconds and post an update .
