Just wondering how far off the lands do you seat the VLD's? I've used 130gr Berger VLD's but they are extremely fussy where as the Hybrids are easier to tune. BTW, nice rig, hope you have a barrel on the shelf or at least one on order
We can only be kept in the cages we do not see. @
That is one of the reasons I quit working with VLD's.. Takes twice as long to develop a load, not only is powder and powder charge important but seating depth is a Pain In The Ass, Once hunting season is over and I can get my hands on some 190gr VLD's in 30cal I will try them again and see if I can get a load dialed in.
I run em 50 thou off the lands, had good luck between .030-.050". Never found them overly finicky as I've heard from others. One thing about them is if you can get em to shoot inside an inch at 100 they seem to hold sub moa out much further than many other bullets I've tried. Other bullets will shoot much better at 100 but they will not stay tight out far enough for my liking. Want to try some nosler lrab but haven't run into any yet, and they dont make 140 grainers. As for bbl life I'm hoping for 800 rounds, really like the sounds of the 26 nosler so less than that wouldn't break my heart. Bbl's are cheap
That's good shooting. Although I'm sure I could have f#$cked up the grass in a 5 foot circumference on the left, right, top or bottom of the target real good. So I'm close to being as good as you.
