It may it is a new chamber and I have tested 30.6 and it also shot a 1.8 inch group. This barrel was a straight 6br and I had my smith change it to a BRA and it turned to under a 2 inch gun from a 3 inch.It wants MORE lol
Yep I agree I'm going to work on seating and neck tension next. I will try and keep posting my results.Myself would fine tune it, with 0.5" or less vertical being my goal (seating, neck tension, neck prep, etc.).
Only proceeding one aspect at a time.
Tuned up a fresh barrel today, new lot of h4895. 7086. 103 vapor trail automated bullet. .005 in. 30.8.

Vapor trail has a machine made bullet now as well as the hand made bullet. He had them in stock.Automated bullet?? Whasat?
I dont know that.Alex, have you found that as long as the lot numbers (last four digits) are the same, the powder shoots the same even if the date (first seven digits) is different? Hodgdon told me as long as the lot number was the same, the powder should be the same. I have not tested this yet but I do have the same lot of powder bottled on dates as much as three months apart.
The first digit is supposed to be the container size and the next six are the date.

Well I shot a pair fire string today with 30.2. It shot good got 1st place with a 200 14X. I'm loving this little 6BRA.30.2 it is then... Love the shot marker for doing a Ladder test...Extremely valuable tool. Enhanced if you set up a Lab Radar next to it.
Thanks for sharing
I was happy with the results
