Average 2708, accuracy is great at 200/300 and 600 yards, no joke sub MOA at 200 yards, will post some pix of targets, next match (two weeks from now) I had spoke with Hornady tech guys back when there was no published data on the Creedmore, they had emailed me some load data , they highly recommended not going over 2700 on speed for best accuracy.

I just noticed the comment about sub moa no joke. I'm shooting 3/4" at 200 yrds on most of my loads, only at 300 I'm getting 1 1/4-2". I'm going to try a scope with more magnification and see if that helps at all. I was really hoping for a solid 1" or so at 300. Someday I want to see what she does at 600 yrds.

What scope are you using? We have tried several scopes, I have given up on finding a quailty scope under, $ 450.00, we are trying a pair of Weaver T-36's right now, very good scopes, but concernes how the 36 fix power will be in heavy mirage. I also have Leupold VX-3 6.5-20 that works really well, would like to have abit more magnification, the other scope we have we found we like very much is the Sightron SIII 8.5-32 power, it has great glass in it also.

Ive been using an old luepold vari XIII 3.5-10 but just received my new vortex hs 5-15x44 from midway, this thing looks sweet, the perfect scope for me. They run just $500 and will rival luepold glass and quality.

Ok , finally got to shoot some today. Here are two groups I shot today, and yes they both have a shooter induced flyer!, The one on the left is Sierra 142g MK and the one on the right is Nosler 140g Custom Competition, both are Hornady Brass, CCI BR primer and 39.1 H4350. They were shot at 200 yards ( I always test loads at 200 yards, its the first distance we shoot in our club match)
