After having some issues with my reloads i panic bought factory ammo. Figured id shoot 3 shots of each box for best group and adjust my scope from there. 7mm rem mag wby vanguard sporter.
150gr fed non typical 3 shot at 100 yds
139gr barnes lr 3 shot at 100 yard
I have yet to manage a reload that groups this good. I'm guessing it's 100% person doing the reloading (me) error. Out of the 6 brands of factory ammo ive tried i can get 4 to group like this. 150gr core lokts, 150gr federal non typicals, 152gr hornady sst's, and 139gr barnes lr. The best grouping ive gotten out of reloads is just inside 1" grouping at 100 yards. 160gr game kings, 58gr imr4350, federal magnum primers, remington brass, seated to 3.2 (guessing on this as im not near the card that has the info). The question is should i just stick to factory? Or is there a good chance i'll eventually be able to load consistently rounds that shoot this good?
