Managed to get out for awhile today.  The best 100yd group of the day came from an odd bullet for a Krag.  Federal's 130gr OTM bullet for the 7.62x51.  I snatched up 250 of them a while back when Midway had them on sale.  I tried several loads, but my recently rebarreled 92/96 seemed to like the 40.4 charge of 3031 that I tried.  According to my Hornady handbook, that should yield around 2750fps.  So, the Springields shouldn't have a big advantage in time of flight to 200yds in the Roosevelt match.  I tried bigger loads of slower powders, but as I've noticed before, seems this rifle doesn't like loads much over 40gr for some reason.  I seated the bullets to the bottom crimp groove, and loaded a few uncrimped to compare.  Crimped shot better, but I have to note that they were trimmed to perfection before crimping and it really wasn't much of crimp, just enough to turn in the 10 degree bevel I put inside the case mouth.  I had some cases that were over length and I trimmed them all to max length before loading, so the crimp, applied with a Lee factory crimp die, was very uniform.  Keeps them from telescoping should that big hollowpoint hang up somewhere while feeding.  The old 92/96 does feed them though.  I also had some loads using the Hornady 150gr FMJBT.  None of them shot as as good as the Mk 319 bullet.  That's 5 shots pictured, the space between two holes tore, makes it look like 6.  Same charge of Accurate 2015 shot about the same as the 3031.
