Believe I'm done for now.
Could not get this to shoot Partitions which was my first choice. Really wanted a 100 gr bullet around 3000 from it and ended with a TTSX.
Shot the first target:

Came out around 3/4", sorry for the cruddy cell pics.
Decided to confirm it with 5 and pulled the first one....

Without the called pull, right at 7/8" (didn't have the calipers)
Also a cruddy pic but here's the rifle

Load is RP Brass, 38.1 RL15, 100 gr TTSX, COAL 2.65, 3 shots avg 3010 fps.
Rifle is a Stevens 200 build, Rifle Basix trigger, Apache Gunworks barrel (24"), BC Medalist Sporter stock with the full bedding block skim bedded by yours truly :grin:
Scope is a Vortex Diamondback 4x12 to sight in with.
 
That's a sweet little rifle! Must send a picture of the loaded cartridge! Man you are slipping for us addicts!
 
Ok,
The nifty 250 alongside his big brother a 280 AI.

Hope that works!
 
Nice looking rifle Dewey. I'm surprised the 100 gr PT didn't
shoot for you.

I know. Really has me flummoxed.
I'm still messing with it.
Think I'll try a different powder combo and continue to play with seating and see what happens. It has to be there somewhere.
It isn't completely unacceptable, just a little bigger group than above. It would work I am sure. Could be I'm being too much of a perfectionist with it.
 
Very nice Dewey! I dig that 250 Ackley.. That is a very nicely built and put together rifle as well..

Hope your able to get the PT's to shoot, but I don't imagine that TTSX will leave much on the table either.
