Thanks hopefully they won't cause me all the issues I had trying to get those SST's to shoot!

Tried out the GMX load today. .010" and .030" were the best .020" and .060" were terrible like 2" or so. Will try the .030" load some more to see if it is consistent. On a positive note my old 140 gameking load still shoots great!

Another good range day today. Still pleased with my hunting loads and the Hornady black factory ammo. Giving up on the 120 GMX with varget though. I had one sub 3/4" group with them out of 15 three shot groups. With the average being around 2" [emoji17]. Seems my rifle does not like the 120 GMX or 129 SST regardless of what powder I use , or seating depth.

In toto, those should give you a great deal of confidence in the rifle. Go forth and shoot something.
