On my 6BR I am getting a bit of a sticky bolt lift. Nothing major but more than it should be. No flat primers, no dimpling, no ejector or extractor marks marks are present. Load is 30.0 Varget and 105 Berger seated .015 from lands with a 29 inch barrel.
Groups are great at 850. about .9 MOA for 10 shots from a bench which for me is outstanding, my rifles length of pull and scope are set up for prone shooting so my bench scores run a tad higher than prone.
Here is my quandary, I may have one, maybe two range sessions before my next match so not a lot of time to adjust. Would you shoot the match with the 30.0 or drop down to 29.8 (29.6) and rezero
edit - the 850 attachment was this mornings practice and the best I have ever shot which is why I am thinking of staying with the 30.0
