Need help dialing in a load...
Hi everybody.
I've been working on a new rifle project. It's basically an AR15 in 358win short X 1.71".
I've been working with Hornady 200 FTX and Speer 180s
I pulled the tips off the FTX bullets so I could seat them out farther to get closer to the lands.
I'm getting some good results, but a flier will pop up and ruin the targets. I'm not sure where the fliers are coming from or what to do to fix it.
I'm getting good velocities with 1680. I ran the powder charges up and down and picked the best one, 35.5gns @ 2391fps, now I'm varying seating depth.

This was tonight's targets.
I did not get any velocity measurements as the sun was getting low and that always messes with the chrony.
I tried some Lee 358-200 and they went everywhere except the middle of the target. Pattern was like 18" at 25yds.
Thoughts?
Suggestions?
