Need some help interpreting OCW results on my new build. My analysis paralysis kicks in & I’m all over the place in terms of what load to develop further. I struggle with deciding if it’s my subpar shooting or the load. I shot 25 rnds of factory ammo for barrel break in & getting familiar with the gun.
22” 300wm with Alamo’s ELR reamer
H1000
215 Berger BTO 2.837 (-.020)
Virgin Lapua brass
CCI250
It was a warm 80F day so I was fighting barrel heat & mirage at times. Since having a kid I’m limited on my ability to get to the range so I decided to shoot in suboptimal conditions.
Circled shot is what I felt was a flyer at 76. I only shot one at 78.5. Never felt I hit pressure.
Graph of velocities below. Green = avg
Suggestions? Shoot another OCW? Take one to seating depth?
