375 Cheytac @ 377 Cutting Edge--Blackbird wants to be a PPC @ DOME

First time out with the 377 gr Cutting Edge was encouraging. I cleaned gun and had one different brand bullet I fouled barrel with and then I had 10 rounds of the Cutting Edge to try.
Shot one elevation was perfect. Slightly right. Shot 2, 3, 4 cut each other. Each shot had been getting faster as the barrel fouled and warmed. When the fps reached 2900 fps I turned on the Lab Radar and chronoed the last 5. Shots 5, 6, 7 was my tightest group. Shot 8 was a little out but shots 9 and 10 cut each other.
Trying to get the labra radar to work, I screwed the muzzle brake off. Big mistake. After the second shot without brake on got me in the face with the scope I screwed the brake back on. Later I had a nerve shooting pain up into my neck. Last night a mid-night I turned the dog out and pushing the patio door shut I came unglued with pain. Felt like a separated shoulder.














 
What’s your load? That’s right at the speed I’m getting with the 377s while forming and it really seems to like it there.

And they’re a bit of a handful without the brake!!;)
 
Hope your alright. Don't know what I'd do without all the cool writeups and pictures.The pictures are pure art!

Right out of the gate I loaded 136 gr H50BMG. May need to increase slightly. Is 2918 fps where I need to be with the 375 Cheytac?????? I was running the Cheytac brand 350 gr solid at 3095 fps.
