6.5 Creedmoor...WHAT'S GOING ON? I was at the range today, shooting a handload at 100 yards. Ruger American Predator. Weaver scope. Hornady 140 gr. ELD-M bullet, 43.6 gr. of RL-26.
As expected...groups ranging from decent to excellent. Two five shot groups. Average velocity about 2800 fps. Then I took five shots at 200 yards. Pretty nice group. But it was fully 2 1/2 inches lower than the groups at 100 yards. I expected an inch lower, not 2 1/2 inches. Any ideas?
