Reloading bench build

Went to the range today, and shot a 5-shot group at 100yds. This was the same aforementioned load: .223 Remington in Starline brass, with Federal 205M primer, 25.0 gn of H4895, and a Sierra Game King 55gn bullet, seated 0.30" off the lands. I had other guns to shoot with newly mounted scopes to sight-in, and, couldn't stay long, so this is the only group with my reloads I have shot, so far.

The Labradar recorded some pretty big velocity swings, so my reloading technique will need refinement, which isn't a surprise since that is my first batch. Just glad to finally "get on paper" with reloading.

No records were broken, but at least it didn't blow-up in my face.
