Limited testing so far. Tested it twice with 43.8 of IMR 4350 loaded at 2.785 .030 off the lands. Both times wanted to shoot tight, but had a mediocre flier mixed in.
Not a lot of room to move with this in a short action and these bullets, but I tried the same load .030 shorter at 2.755. According to my measurements I'm .062 into the case body with this bullet at that measurement.
Hot today and I didn't feel like loading up and going to the range. If I pull into a field lane and put the target inside the woods edge, I can get 80yds here at the house. Just shot off the hood of my truck.
Might be getting about as good as I can get with a lever and partitions. Getting where I'm ready to zero the scope and call this combo a wrap.
Did well enough it deserved a post exercise picture. Ha.
