From a couple years ago when I was playing with the 223wssm before I got bored with it and moved on to the next caliber on my list. Lower left side - 42.6gr of RL-19 and a 69gr Nosler CC was the magic combo for that barrel. This was at 100yds. That particular load was flat to 300 as I recall:
From my beloved '06.
And, from my 25.06:
And these were before getting both eyes rebuilt from cataracts. Now the range officer doesn't have to tell me I'm facing the wrong way when I shoot. I can actually see the target line.

Heres a couple of my best groups, Savage 112 22-250 50gr vmax over IMR 4064. Its been my go to load for years.
First group is from 2001, at 100yds, the other is from a couple weeks ago at 300. Same rifle, same load

I'm the Boss. I make sure what she wants gets done.
Nice 300 yard group
Ya know, looking at all these targets and the nice tight grouping produced makes me wonder why some guys call Savage rifles junk. One of the best features is having the ability to swap barrels at will and replace / repair any parts when needed without having to take out a mortgage for gunsmith services.
'Scuse me while I whip this out...!
I'm with ya on that one Frank!
2nd that! Except thee rimfires are hard to replace alot

Can I show my attempt using a Savage MK11 BSEV at Rochester UK? A tack driver if ever there was
Jack
yattempt
Using sub sonic loads?
No, standard velocity
Isn't most standard velocity sub sonic?
223 Rem 69 gr smk 5 shots 100 yds

6.5x47 during load work up

Very nice Jack! I thank everyone who has posted their groups so far,, very good shooting and excellent Savage rifles we have.
Looks like you've about got it dialed in, Jack.
Dontcha just love it when a plan comes together for ya?
'Scuse me while I whip this out...!
Yes frankOriginally Posted by fgw_in_fla
It is fun when it comes together like those two rifles did
Only problem I have is as soon as I get one shooting like that,
I start another one in another caliber!
I know : I have the "bug"/ sickness really bad lol
Happens to all of us at some point. No sense trying to fight it.
Just go with the flow.
I have a light weight .243 I made for the wife to shoot and for hoglets. I haven't even got any load work ups yet and I'm thinking of pulling the barrel and going with another .270.
Strong is the barrel swap OCD within us, I say....

My new savage m25 .17 hornet. Factory ammo @100 yards.
. And here again at 300 yds 3 shots closest to the tacks.
This is my best target at 500 meters (547yds) with my .223 147/150 7X
Shot this today after load development on my new .308, same distance. It's actually two separate groups, the second being a tad higher than the first.

very nice
Yes indeed, I like f class targets, shows how a rifle load and shooter work together with the wind.
I see you noticed that it took me 3 rounds to get into the 10 ring. Thanks so much for pointing that out! LOL!!!!
