Maybe it wasn't a fluke, just needed a load it liked. What kind of sights are you using?

Just my experience that most of the P14's "like" the heavy bullets. I really like your stock. What brand and style is it? Safeshot

just the vernier sights set at 600 yards. The impact is exact centre for elevation, but left by 6". I won't adjust the front sight till I know I want to stick with the load

Nice looking rifle, and good shooting too. I like your ambidextrous bench too. Are you a South paw?

I haven't had a P14, but all of the M1917's that I have shot were surprisingly accurate from supported positions.

Yes sir I am a lefty. I have built a few benches, and always try to keep them ambidextrious.
I never know if someone is going to be with me, and want to make sure someone doesnt miss a good opportunity to enjoy shooting.
