    How much less powder are you using than a 77gr load and how far are you shooting?

    That weight difference might not even cause a miss.

    I know this question is for hi-wayman, but for our load, there's actually more powder than a 77 due to loading them longer. (2.50") And the velocity is about the same as a 77 at 2745 fps.

    Based on our experience with the 88, I'd guess that the bigger weight variances might become an issue at 750 and beyond. At 1300, even the factory first bullets will get as squirelly as a 6.5cm when the weather/wind is anything less than ideal.
