Purchased this GA precision 300 Norma from a hide member recently and finally got some ammo loaded up for it.
I got lucky with my load recipe (86gr of N570 pushing a 230gr Hybrid, set .010 off the lands)
Went out to a friends place this weekend and sighted it in at 100 yards, got my Velocity data and jumped right to the 1000 yard target.
Was so thrilled with the groups I got! Wind was light at 3-5mph.
This is my first time shooting a magnum at any kind of distance.
Time to load up some more and do it again!

Happy shooting!

Magnums can be addicting...be prepared. Also, stock up on N570 when you can as it's probably one of the best powders for a range of magnum cartridges, not just .300NM.
