Handloading accurate 50 yard ammo is tough ...
The problem may lie in your reloading ... the steps you take how you preform the steps , case expansion for bullet seating , seating the bullet without sizing it doiwn in the case , undersized bullets will drive you nuts trying to figure out where they come from . Seating bulets in one step ... crimping in a seperate step ... most importantly ... powder charging ...\
the powder charges Must be extremely consistent .
I would buy some factory loaded lead 158 gr. ammo , test them and see ... is it my handloads or...?
I've been working on castin bullets and loading accurate 38 specal ammo for a good 50 years ... and It's tough to do !
