Help me out, tuning with a can

Ok I should have said I see some comments that make me cry at how absurd they are.
Thank you
Looking at his 1st charge test the1st group shows the same horizontal string as does his final bushing confirmation test... my belief is its shooter induced and we've discussed his table Manners.
The other observation is
Seating and last charge weight test were shot in the morning during great conditions. Initial charge weight and and final bushing test were shot in the afternoon with less than desirable conditions with no flags, add in the additional mirage from can "no blanket" sheds a little light on his groups.
We'll finish off this pound of N565 for range ammo.
Talking with Zack has shed a lot of light on this cartridge, basically a short fat cartridge.
Zack posed the question to me...
If you have a short fat cartridge like say a PPC or 6br would you go with a slower powder or faster??
Faster of course!!
In order for me to teach/mentor I need him to work through the process of his decisions and discuss the outcome afterwards.
Now looking at the 6.5-7 prc that is successful in Fopen a lot of shooters are running N555 with great results.

Lapua brass and H4350 are on the table to see what we can do to get some precision out of this setup.

Is the rifle a short action?
 
Well its been a while since we got this 6.5 PRC tuned, mostly because he bought a 7prc too. Kids hooked. lmfao
Devon got some Chronograph info over Thanksgiving weekend on the 6.5 prc
2975fps SD 1 for 5 shots with the 140amax and N565.

I'd say he learned a lot and really got it done this year!!
All animals were taken with the 7prc
 
Nice Bear.
And I still haven't got any summer sausage....
Devon and his brother hunt an area called Bear Camp up in the top if coast range.
They had more and bigger bears on camera, this bear was shot within 10 minutes of the deer and about 100 yards away.

There always seems to be bigger Bears on the camera, but when the shootin starts here’s the one that didn’t get the memo. lol
I’m not a fan of bear meat but you go ahead, more for you bro’ :)

Looks like the south side of bear camp based on the vegetation? Below Kim road?

Nice haul!
