Course on the flip side of that..I have some pretty impressive pics out of my (non) savage ML using Harvester 300gr PT GOLD with Blackhorn 209 and CCI 209M primers...not sure how to load them here yet but I (my T/C Encore) puts 4 shots in less than an inch at 100...yea I'm proud ;D

As you can see got my pics loaded. Hope I didnt step on toes posting my T/C !
BTW...Those .243 loads I mentioned above are grouping slightly less than an inch at 100 using a 2.5-8 VIII.
But in that super thin barrel...I gotta let it cool after every shot to get those groups
