rk:    If I had known that the load shot that well I would have kept quiet about it..!!   Seriously though, just do as much shooting as you can. Learn the rifle. Do your best to eliminate the outlying shots. 
    How heavy is your rifle?  Will you shoot it in natches?                           az

Hey Andy,

That sure is a good load. Thanks for the tip. My rifle weights 13.6 lbs. I'll be using it at the Columbia Schuetzenverein match this Aug.

Thats a good weight.  40's tend to wear on the shooter if shot enough.  Weight added to the butt can be very helpful.
    Great on the match.  More to be learned at a match than lots of practics.       Best          az
