    I've been mucking around for ages trying to find a consistent load for my rifle. Lots of 3 shot groups. The one thing I have done is keep all my targets which are printed on an A4 sheet of paper....

    gimp liked post by stug On thread : Testing a conventional approach to load development
    Makes me feel good about my load development technique. Fire 1 shot at each charge weight to get velocity idea. Usually pick the highest, safe, velocity. Load 3 and shoot. If under an inch call it...

    I think you might be missing a point… gimp is indicating that the old school method that you describe above is a waste of ammo and time. By your logic why not just take your own advice and pick a...

    251138 Right on 25mm, which at the 100m range it was shot at means it squeaks under MOA. 80gr ELD-M from my long throat Tikka. 2800fps on the money 20” barrel.
