Hey gents
I have been working on developing a load for my Remington 700 22-250. It has a 1:14 twist in a 26 inch factory varmint barrel. All my loading was based on my results at 100 yards. I was happy with what I had and then went to the 200 line. My groups went from less than on inch to five inches!!?! No signs of key holed bullets, no change in shooting style, no change in wind, weather or ammo. No scope issues either. I loaded 55 grain hornady fmj bt with 37 grainsreloader 15 and a CCI primer. Bullet just off the lands. Any ideas? Could it destabilize after 100? Doesn't make sense and I've been shooting a long time
