Hi all,
I have a Savage 11 .243 win., with a McGowen 1:12 twist varmint barrel with a 5-15x42 bushnell 3200 elite scope.
I found a really good load... a 70 grain nosler ballistic tip
bullet 46.3 grains of H4831, lapua brass, cci 200 primer seated
.10 from the lands and shoots .25 inch group at 100 yards. At 300 it spreads to 2.00 inches. Can I improve this 300 yard group, or leave it alone? Bedding needed?
Or get a 1:7 twist and shoot heavy bullets.
