    What is your velocity? Are you using any case fillers? Orienting the powder once the cartridge is chambered?

    1600fps and no case fillers. Rounds are vertically stored in Berry's 50rd boxes, lifted one round at a time and feed direct to chamber.

    Nice shooting. I might have missed it but what powder are you using? I really enjoy cast bullets.

    IMR4198. Made some minor changes to neck tension and hope to test next week prior to match on the 20th.

    Good luck at the shoot. I used 4198 with my .308 as well. Same loading technique.
