And some more 30-20 with the Pope bullet...

Latest try with the pope 308403 bullet, this time shallowly seated into the case and loaded as a fixed cartridge.  The 1st shots had some fliers,and were a bit high. After giving 2 clicks down  (and the shooter settling down too...) things started to come together.  Not my best group , but as the last 7 shots were all X-ring or close, worth some further experimenting - 13 shots in all. 18 grs of Swiss no.4 , case necksized, bullet barely seated with some necktension.  
All shooting prone, with sling, no support of course (except for the elbows), distance 75m (82 yds for you guys:) ) Maybe some more powder will help, next time I'll try some sized and expanded cases but loaded separately.  (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links)

Don't look at the .22 holes, I'm just cheap and re-use targets...
