Returning precision shooter in Georgia. I used to run a heavily tweaked Winchester Model 70 heavy barrel in 22-250 out in California, did my own hand loads and would push anywhere from 3800 to 4250 fps out the end. That rifle was a tack driver and accurate as a surgeon's scalpel. Getting 0.750 inch groups at 300 yards was not that hard, if there wasn't a whisper of wind. But, things got interesting and I had to sell the rifle and got out of the sport.
Fast forward to 2020, and I have decided to get back into the sport. This time I went with an Ruger Precision Rifle in 6.5 CM. Getting my hand load station all set up, and now I'm basically just looking at it. I realize I have forgotten most of what I knew about hand loading. Basically I have become a newbie again. I am going to need to relearn and I'll be going over the thread history here to try to get that knowledge back.
So if you have any knowledge, wisdom, or advice to impart, please feel free to do so.
