(Notes)

Needed to load a few up to try shooting a practice match next Saturday. This barrel has about 1200-1400 rounds through it. Really not shooting factory ammo terribly well any more. I ran the bullet out as long as would reliably function through AI style magazine. Shot ok, but I kept seating bullet deeper until it shot real well. that happened at 2.82 inches. I only cronoed 1 round, as I needed about 80 rounds to take to match. pretty much stacking them @ 100, and you could just pick a spot at 400 and hit it. I stopped as soon as I got the results I was looking for. I will only be shooting to 700 yards at this match, so it will let me see how good a load it is. Made up a DOPE card with JBM, and it was within a Mil, at 400 yards. So I think my FPS is pretty close to right.
There are no fleas on the 9.3s
