I have been working up loads for my new .223AI and I am having a [beeep] of a time with 5 shot groups. I have not had this type of problem with any other rifle so I could use some help figuring out what is going on. The problem is I have been getting three rounds in a very good group with two consistent fliers.
I have been measuring every load so I know the charges are accurate. I am not getting any barrel to stock contact, conditions are fair for shooting. I am using the same Win brass and CCI 200 primers as well. I usually shoot from bags but today I used a lead sled but it did not help any. Here are some samples of what I am talking about.
Any thoughts or suggestions???
I did try some H4895 and had by far the most consistent results and the best velocities with no signs of pressure. The wind started to pick up a bit while shooting these groups. I need to work around this load and shoot some more of it....still not giving up.
