Sweet. A 0.13" group. That is honestly very impressive. I have never grouped that well. I have been shooting since the 80s. Other than rimfire I can't remember 3 shots literally in the same hole. There is your load. Thank you.
Shooting groups with "full caliber" is more difficult then you think, unless you are using a bench rest setup. Ods he wont be making a 0.13" group again even if he tried 10 more 3-shotgroups. In my experience you can get really nice groups, once.. but never again. Just as a load can spread "bad" the combination shooter and grouping can make even bad loads appear fine. But i would think its a great load, as the load before and after is fine to. I would settle on the mid one, and then focus on basics like trigger, recoil managment etc.
Im glad i found this video! I have been looking for load videos with staball and the lighter bullets. looking to try it with the patriot valley arms seneca solids
I wondering if your first shot (that went high) was a cold bore shot. If it were down with where the rest groups printed that would also be a great group.
Interesting - I love staball. In my 6,5 CR I’m @ 43.5 with a 140g ELD-M, 2880, SD 4.9, ES 16. Average groups size sub .25 MOA. My gun is particularly fast - 26 inch barrel.
@@RobsReloading QL shows the "Solid Density" of StaBall 6.5 as 1.620 grams/cubic cm. I used your 49 grain H2O case volume. My math for a case full to the top somehow failed at 79?! Maybe that's if there was no airspace...
