Out breaking in my new action and barrel in and some early testing of Berger 200 20X bullets

252 round through the barrel after load testing and fire forming new brass. groups are tightening up but still getting a wild flyer could be me or the new brass.

Went out and dis some bullet seating depth testing to figure out my CBTO with 3 shots groups at 100 yards I like 2.25

looks great. enjoy F/TR, it's a hoot. I am brand new to it and just shot my first match (Florida State Championship FSSA ,mid range) and finished 4th. pretty happy with that, using a CBI barrel on a Savage Target action. BTW, what is the free bore of your barrel?

Rifle is starting to shoot 300 yards 5 round me working it in to the center and 10 in the big group. Using a Tier-one carbon fiber bipod and really like it a big improvement over the EVO bipod. wider and adjust higher very stable and tracks great.

10 rounds in a wad at 300. You can quite load work and go shoot a match. Was that with the 200-20x?
