I just picked one up and starting to load for it. 110 accubonds is what I would like to shoot. So far I have tried starting loads with h4831sc and h1000, both group the same around 1.5in. I can live with that but of course would like it to be a little better. I started with the nosler 3.209 test length data for everything I've tried so far. Gun in question a 700 cdl ssf. Federal 215m primers
My question is this....I'm seeing coal all over the place after researching 257 110 AccuBond data, from 3.150 to 3.3 and some longer. I know the initial recommended length was 3.170. I guess having my first "freebore" gun is throwing me for a loop or maybe I am overthinking it. I either see folks say seat deep due to freebore or other folks say seat as long the magazine will allow and feed the rounds. Yes I know I can go longer or shorter and keep shooting til I figure it out, just curious what others are doing with these 110 accubonds as far as coal?
thanks for any help
