SHV those latest groups are with jacketed though right?
yes they are jacketed projectiles, TBF 150gr 308, I forgot to test the TB/cast lead ammo that evening
Thought so. I'm almost certain you already know this SHV, but for all of our sake I'll re-iterate: when you shoot lead through your BLR/any 308w bolt gun, you you can't push lead nearly as fast as jacketed; gotta stick to reduced single-action velocities (exactly like what you're doing in your win 94 30/30).
BTW I've been working on some of my own TB under lead loads for my tikka CTR 308w, I'll post my results after i get out to st marys.
