    More referring to the starting point as you have suggested using a similar projectile and my own reload data for accelerated development. Dont really have any
    Well aware of the reloading start up.
    Start low etc
    243, 270, 303 and possibly 8x57 but realistically probably more the first 2 with the odd 303 round as well.
    Got a selection of different projectiles and some powders for them.
    Upon reflection of some reloads done last year for my 243 I should've been happy with the results considering my sighting in setup and rifle but havent got around to doing it over.
    40mm ish 5 shot groups with targex 95s out of the 70 lightweight, bedded and floated.
    Should've stuck to 3 shots for that light barrel and now I have some better rests
    I have no doubt that most loads will be under 2".
    I suppose I am going down the rabbit hole of expecting better than factory accuracy from reloading but realise you are lucky if you get it without a lot of development.
    Unlike the 416 which shoots i" and under with basically none
