    I did the “M4C” load of 24.5gr TAC, Wolf SRM, and 55gr fmjbt and shot the best 5 shot group of my life at about 0.574”. Maybe a fluke, but I was happy enough that I didn’t load dev any further lol

    This was from a Noveske SS 16” that shot Nosler 77’s pretty routinely ~0.75” groups

    ETA: Correction - it was 24.2gr that gave me that group. 24.5gr put them in 1.045”.

    Yeah, I like these bullets alot. In my guns, they're great over 24.4gr of H335 or 26.0gr of BLC-(2). Either load shoots at around an inch at 100 in my 18" BA barreled gun. 3" at 225, farthest I've yet shot them to date. 5 shot groups.
