Wink
We had a few minutes so we ran out to the range.
Testing a 30 waters contender, 450 bushmaster, 47LC brake open pistol. I also confirmed my 6.5 Needmore. 
We found "THE" load for the waters.
The 450 was surprising, a subsonic 1090 FPS 100 yards. 
 
The colt/410 still could use some more testing.
The Needmore was just like I left it last time.
I pulled one but the other 4 did very well.
This is a 5 shot group.

My boy loaded a mock shell for the up coming 358 win barrel for the NM, it's 10 weeks out.
 
that's a 6.5 NM vs 358 win.

Big smile

I'm pretty sure that's dialed in.

Piggies?
I have always considered myself to be quite the bullshitter, But ocasionally it is nice to sit back and listen to a true professional......So, Carry on.
