Working on it. Bottom two groups were the last groups so I think I got it. Need to run about 50 more rounds to prove it. :)

I have a 300 winmag and shoot 210 g berger, 69 g r/22 powder, norma brass. Me and my kids were shooting rocks out to 920 on friday. Was fun. 700 yds and less are chip shots now. Stay with it. Its fun.

I shoot a very similar setup. Have not shot the Bergers much, 76 grains seems to be my sweet spot at just over 2900 fps

Went out yesterday to try some different OAL's probably not the best day with 15 mile an hour gust but the bullet drop plus did calculate a .8 drift at 100 yards and a 3 inch drift at 200 yards and it was spot on with what I was seeing, of course I would hold over to compensate and the wind would die. Only have the 100 yard target pic, clockwise starting top left jumping the lands .025 .035 .055 and .075. .025 and .075 were the tightest groups. The random shots were already on the target used some stickers I bought off Amazon. Due to the wind I will try these loads again and see if it improves. Going to add break and jewel trigger as a Christmas gift to myself, I think my shoulder will appreciate it also. Using 210 Berger LRBT with 75 gr. of H1000 pushing them.

Well I got half of my Christmas gift today a new Jewel trigger I have two Timneys and the Jewel is truly a jewel. It is set at 1# think I am going to go to 2.5 # one just seems extremely light.

I set all of my Jewells up at 7oz. It sounds light but with a bit of practice, you get the feel of it where you can actually feel it without setting them off. They're nice because you don't have to build any real pressure from your hand to get it to go which eliminates torque on the grip when you're in an odd field position. Also because you can get set and wait out the mirage or wind to get right. When conditions are suddenly right, you just have to think about it and bang. Off she goes.

Thanks guys I will shoot it before I adjust it just seems very light probably because I am not accustomed to it. Now if I could find some new 300 Win brass :( not sure what the deal is but cannot seem to find any right now.
