gmg Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Could someone help me with this issue I'm having. I bought some Ramshot competition to try. I loaded some that would make 131PF and then I loaded some of my usual HP-38 load both using 200gr LSWC's. The problem is the rounds using Ramshot are a good 2" low POI. The HP-38 loads are on the money as usual. This is at 14 - 15yds. I know most would say just use HP-38 but I would really like to know why ramshot is shooting low since it really does shoot nice.

RH45 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Are they running the same velocity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g56 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Anytime you change anything, the point of impact can change, sometimes its a lot, sometimes not, but its not predictable, you have to try them to see what happens. Different brand of bullet, even though its the same weight, will probably impact in a different spot, different powder? Same thing. Sometimes even changing the brand of primer can cause a change! I was playing with some different bullets on one of my rifles last week, 15 grain lighter bullets, you would expect a change in the elevation, instead I got an impact about 4" LEFT of the heavier bullet, you just don't know till you try something.l Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
