RUMLUVER...
As stated in another thread, I'm currently working with a 338 Tomahawk I was attempting to get the 225 Accubonds to shoot and could to a point. Meaning I have shot some groups that would measure in the 2 or 3's but not consistantly. Personally, I think there was more bond and not enough accu put in the bullets I had. The first box of 50 I went through, it seemed that I could get 2 in one hole and one out with various loading of Retumbo. Switched to H1000 and the one out tighened up and gave a few tight groups as mentioned. Other boxes of 225's produced enough fluxuation that I went to another bullet. I went back to Retumbo, 250 SMK's, loaded 100.5 grains, ignited with a GM215M primer and the results were more consistant. I'm getting about a 5fps deviation with a velocity of 3120 out of my 32" Lilja barrel. That may not be the end of my testing yet but at this point I am satisfied with the performance of the gun and the 250 SMK's and somewhat less pleased with the 225 Accubonds for my set up. With some more tinkering, I may get the 225's to shoot but at this point I can't see taking a step back.
