10-4 I think I’ve got 6 firings on the brass that I’m running now. That said I have had to toss a few for loose primer pockets. I anneal every firing but that’s just because I’m a creature of habit.

What load are you using?

I’m not pushing it super hard. I’m running the 108eldm over H1000 at 3260fps out of a 20” barrel. I can’t remember how many grains off hand, I’d have to look when I get home.

Anybody tinkering with the 80gr. ELDVT? If so, what powder, speeds, and rifle specs?

Nine shots. I was going for 10 but statically guessed where it would go.

I feel bad for ya. But maybe you can find a load that shoots well one of these days

In all seriousness, any clue why that one lone flier?

Whenever your load is shooting good, you are required to mess up the last shot. I am so used to following this rule that I don’t even have to think about it. Just happens naturally.

I have no idea. Probably because I suck. It was also windy. About 10-15 mph. But I can't even blame the wind because the rest were dialed.
Maybe I didnt have my bipod loaded correctly. I like shooting prone off a bipod for sighting in and testing loads.
But I see what Form says that it definitely can add some error to the system when not used correctly.
