The peep sight looks very useful.

Those groups are crossing. Usable at shorter ranges. What are your plans to see if they can be non crossed? 2500 for for a 170 be is already quite fast?



Hello NitroX,
Thanks for the reply.

I have a couple of doubles that have loads like these that cross slightly at 50 yds. A 2" crossing group at 50 yds results in 4" groups at 100 yds, which in most cases is acceptable for typical DR hunting. However, I do intend to try a few loads to see if I can accomplish "muzzle distance apart" non-crossed groups. Next test with 175gr bullets might do better. I also plan on trying some RL powders which I believe are used by Norma in their Factory ammo.
