Well the rain finally quit but you wouldn't know it the humidity is terrible but I wanted to test 10X to see what it would do since I always had good luck with it in the past. It works better with these 325gr bullets than with the lighter ones. The accuracy and velocity was very good and no signs of powder fouling. This barrel seems to stay super clean no matter what you use. So I plan on testing both 10X and IMR 3031 on paper at 1K. 10X gives me more velocity with 8grs less powder than IMR 3031. The group did open up with 89grs so I didn't shoot three shots. Also the gun stock wanted to stick to leather bags not a good thing for accuracy my other rests have slick silver bags so that won't be a problem shooting off them. I hope conditions are good tomorrow evening to see how it will do at that long distance.

Looks like both powders perform well for you. Can't wait to see 1k results.

Hey Richard so far the big Sightron is handling the recoil no signs of anything going bad but maybe it is since the groups opened up into the 3/10th range. Big problem today was the humidity I hate hot humid weather and it was bad today. So my trigger pulling might have suffered from heat stroke.
