Opinions are like a* - here is mine;
Dial the scope up, all shots are, consistently low.
The groupings are pretty inconsistent - so as long as fundamentals are 100% right, something has to change.
The inconsistency might be powder related / speed burn but it’s hard to tell.
Personally, I’d try the 08 and as others have said - go .5 because .1 is just to finicky.
Here is what I’d do IF I were in your shoes - and it is only a step forward, it’s not my normal.
Id reload 5 shots at ADI lowest rec weight and then 4 shots each in .5 increments up to max rec plus one 4 shot group over max by only .5
1st reload shot of new batch is ALWAYS from the hip. Then discount the worst of a 4 shot group and then start looking at tightening up powders and look at seating depth...
