Best group ever

[PrairieBoy]

So I have a funny story. I was working to a load for coyotes with my 243 AI with a 29 inch 1-7.5 benchmark barrel. My main bullet is 105 berger hybrid (when they exist that is) and 115 dtac. The bullet I chose for the coyote load is the 87 gr vmax, and powder was hybrid 100v. Anyways I did a pressure test and then began working 3 shot groups and when I got about midway in the powder charge weights and it started to tighten up, and with the next group at .3 gr higher then the last all 3 went in the same hole ! I walked uo to the target and couldn't believe eyes it was 1 .308 sive hole, well I thought I had just found the most accurate load ever in my rifle. I loaded 5 to confirm and then ........ not a single one even were on paper. It was at this point I started to see how I git a 1 hole group , I loaded one more and went 10 feet in front of the target and shot. Hahaha they were definitely not holding together and the one .308 hole sized group was a bullet with a boiling lead core. Anyways there ya have it that's my funny story about my best group ever haha

We had a similar deal recently--Friend showed up with his dads 22 --and several boxes of CCi SV
He asked for help dialing in the scope--I put a dot up at 25 yard --sat down to my bench with a big front bag and Protektor rear bag--It put three shots in the exact same hole--dead nuts! I could not believe my eyes--so I loaded some of that in my CZ 457 sitting there--my 50 yd bench shooter--and it layed three in one tiny ragged hole
So....Now I know how CCI SV used to have such a reputation--it was the ammo all the way--stuff was maybe 10-12 years old? Maybe older--he could only guess-- It shot like Midas or better!
Fun when things are happy surprise

That's pretty awsome, yup it nice when things work out. I need to build another ackley in a 12 twist or something sp I can drive em hard and not have them blow up at 400,000 rpm as soon as they leave the barrel.

Actually on that note I am kind of obsessed with either a creed case of some kind or 6br case just cuz of the small primer pocket option , large rifle primers are basically not existent in my part of the world but small primers are plentiful.
