    I've read that velocity drop is often associated with initial compression of the powder charge. As others have already said 41.5 seems worth picking. Don't chase speed, chase consistent accuracy.

    Well done I'd be pretty happy with those results, and I have been reloading for 35 years so all credit to you, the time and effort always pays off.:)

    I've just been watching videos of US shooters pick off 5 steel .8m x .7m targets in a row, standing offhand with no sling or post support. At 500m for centrefire (usually in the 6mm range, some .308)...
