    MB liked post by Magnetite On thread : 3 vs 5 shot groups
    I was looking over some of my old targets for load development (seating depth specifically) comparing 3 and 5 shot groups. And from what I could see I would have reached the same conclusions with 3...

    New brass will add a whole new set of variables. Changing one thing at a time is best (I quite often fail at this). Check your annealing then do the ladder.

    For $2-$3 do you want to play that game with your face? I wouldn’t.

    A nice thick piece of copper cable works well too.

    I haven’t done load development unsuppressed, but I have shot the load without it. The harmonics are definitely different and the POI shift was huge, ~10cm at 100m.

    I wouldn’t overlook that flat spot between 43.2-43.5gr. It may prove to be more stable under varying conditions.

    It maybe, but It has an SD of zero. That’s unheard of consistency.

    I don't like buy once cry once. How can you buy once if you don't know what you want. Better to start off cheap (try someone else's gear, secondhand etc.) and then invest in quality once you have a...

    I use the deep creek method for finding the lands. 1. Strip down your bolt (firing pin, extractor. Everything that will put pressure on the case). 2. Find a sized case where the bolt drops freely...

    I don't mind at all. Hopefully I have been clear enough (In my first post I mentioned it's over max and again when I posted over max data). When venturing past max, my new approach is to cross...

    Everyone seems to think 2209 is the go to ADI powder for sub 140gr projectiles in the 6.5x55. 2213SC worked really well for the 129gr Interlock. The siren of accuracy was calling, so I thought why...

    I got round to some accuracy testing and was surprised at the results. Both were 6 shot groups at 100m. I played around with the seating depth for both powders but settled on using the same for each....
