    300 is about the limit ethically energy wise on game the "rainbow trajectory" is easily compensated for with a bdc or mil dot scope or you can dial if that way inclined. Drop is predicable unless the...

    Personally id but a set of burris zrings with a +.020 insert in the rear and a -0.20in the front But those are almost half the cost of a jw15 So a peice of coke can in the rear ring will have to do

    I'm in the exact same place, csmiffy. Have loaded my first batch, just trying to find a chance to make it to the range. TARGEX recommended I try AR2209, and if that didn't work, try AR2213. I have...

    A mate and I went with the A&D and the auto throw/trickler V3, went halves in them. By the time we sold up our other powder throwers etc, only cost us $600 each. Easy do 50 rounds in less than 15...

    Dead is better liked post by Plinky On thread : My Weigh "ibalance i211g". Has anyone gone down this road yet?
    I use a sartorius at home and a cheapo Chinese scale at the range for load development. Both weight to one kernel of powder which is usually 0.02gn. The cheapo needs to be tared every few settings...

    I have the AnD FX-300i which is exactly the same scale as res's but just with more capacity which I don't use at any rate. Very highly recommend the brand. There is excellent backup thru AnD...

    43gr of AR2209 give me 2698 fps in the 135gr A-Tip. 40gr of AR2209 give me 2605 fps in the 143gr ELD-X. That is out of a 22" barrel but I am not chasing speed and will always go with accurate vs...

    Dead is better liked post by veitnamcam On thread : Accuracy at 100 vs 600 (example). Variations in accuracy at different ranges
    I personally tend to shoot better groups at 200m vs 100m(moa wise) but I think that is more of a eye strain /lighting/parallax type issue.

    Dead is better liked post by Sakoswarosorted On thread : Accuracy at 100 vs 600 (example). Variations in accuracy at different ranges
    Brian Litz has an article somewhere on this - basic gist was it is impossible physics for a bullet to settle down and get more accurate at range e.g be 2 moa at 100 yards and then 0.5 at 600

    It can make a big difference. If you load up a batch and seat 5 projectiles at 10, 20, 30, 40 etc thou off the lands you will see big differences on paper over the range of seating depths. Best...
