this time Ruger did a good job, free floating barrel, no stock sanding needed, kind of surprise

after put the muzzle break I redid the reload test, it changed a little, 24.7-24.8 should be the best now(It was 25.0 before the MB)

will load some 24.8gr to sight-in 200m and try some 300 and 400m at my friend's farm this sunday to see how it performs at longer distances

Looks good SHV...!!: ...cant be too disappointed with that...!!...

I have a (to potentially be perceived as silly), unrelated question though...

Why do you write the load data on a post it note & stick it to the target...?.../...Why not just write it on the target...?

What if someone switched the stickies around when you weren't looking... ...how would that fair for the confirmation load test...

What if the glue on a pack of sticky's was dodgy & a gust of wind came & blew them off... ...and you had to go running down the range looking like a drunk version of Mr Bean with numb legs & side-show-bob feet trying to stomp on the targets to catch them...

And then, in your vein attempt to catch some stickys, & with your back turned, another target blew away, & when you got back to the bench, you saw that target blowing down the range & thought to yourself--i pity that bloke having to chase his target, a tleast i caught mine before it got that far...!... & then when you go to show someone that target & you cant find it, that person says "its not that one blowing down the range is it...?

I made the notes/sticker before reload, put on the table as reference and after reload put the sticker and the ammo into zipper bags, so I know which bag is which ammo
at shooting range I always shoot from the low charge to high, so I remember the sequence，I guess I'm too lazy to write it again on the target, so just put the stickers next to each group to take photo, then throw them away
