James, I ladder tested the loads mentioned and chrono'd. To be honest it wasn't shooting good at the very beginning of it's journey. I thoroughly cleaned the bore first after first range testing. Then I bedded it. Front of receiver ,recoil lug and chamber length of barrel. Remainder of barrel floated.
Came alive after that. I have the ladder test targets saved and will forward. ( going to take a pic ).
The accurate ladder loads showed VG & ES also.
I stopped shooting since it showed it would shoot and back to the safe.

I have the 300wsm version of this and although I hadn't worked up a load for it, it wouldn't shoot factory ammo all that great but "minute of deer" was good enough for my father in law. When it was given to me I had it threaded for my suppressor and nown3 shot groups with factory ammo are under 1" usually around 3/4".

I'm guessing the slim barrels harmonics benefit a lot from the weight up front
