I found interesting the jump of the different groups from one place on the target to a different point of impact despite having kept the same zero. And his explanation to try to find a more stable group that works across a larger range of temperatures ( and/or speed variations)And also his results at 600yrds where his best groups are not necessarily his most consistent in terms of speed. I was interested to see others opinions.

I liked some of Little crow gunworks stuff. Very drawn out but definitely the group vertical vs velocity was interesting as.
Most people shouldn't dismiss some of the first fundamentals of having a mechanically sound firearm system. In my experience most people's firearms will have some form of issue that they won't have recognised yet, effectively wasting their resources "testing" with a unnecessarily flawed system.
He shows how to use GRT well and how to use it to develop load parameters. The charge ladders with different powders definitely is a fast way to see if a combination of components will be acceptable for the intended use while also finding the pressure max to stay below.
