Hey All; Went to the range again today to test some ammo.
A few things I found out, some weird:
All my previous HMR's didn't perform their best until they were nice and fouled, usually after about 20 rounds.
This is the first HMR rifle I have had that shoots the same weather perfectly Clean or Dirty :o
Was interesting to find that the Hornady XTP and the CCI Gamepoint shoot nearly indentical POI.
With the accuracy edge going to Hornady.
Also the CCI V-Max and the Hornady V-Max , shoot nearly indentical POI.
Again, the accuracy edge going to Hornady. The CCI's tend to have a flyer here and there.
20gr. pills shoot about .5" high and .75 right of the V-Max's POI.
Another thing: after shooting CCI V-Max and then switching back to Hornady V-Max, my POI drops low right for the first two shots and then recovers, I checked this a few times with the same results.
Now when shooting CCI V-Max and then swithing to Hornady V-Max, POI does not change.
I need to pick up some Federal V-Max to try

This was off the Bipod with no rear rest
