    Seating depth variations

    Re: Seating depth variations Seating based on ogive won't necessarily give you consistency, either, sorry to say. However, I believe it to be a better method than base to tip. Depending on the quality of the bullets, there can be quite a variation. I make it a practice to measure all my...

    IMR 8208 XBR

    Re: IMR 8208 XBR I'm thinking it's a better small case powder. Shoots 100 - 200 fps faster than H4895 in my .204R. Very good accuracy from it.

    Range Report Rifle shoots better at longer range?

    Re: Rifle shoots better at longer range? Parallax being the possible cause is something so easily over looked that I hadn't considered it. You may have hit on it, Greg. Many of the shooters I've run into don't really know how to adjust out the parallax. They either 'focus' with the control...

    Range Report Rifle shoots better at longer range?

    Re: Rifle shoots better at longer range? It's not an uncommon occurrence as stated above. Seems no one has a real handle on the phenomenon. I was just reading this article by Brian Litz: http://www.appliedballisticsllc.com/epswerve.html He sort of put to rest the sleeping bullet theory.

    OCW quick test today...pls comment on results

    Re: OCW quick test today...pls comment on results From the test it looks to me that your node is around 97.3. However, if you're willing to drop the velocity a bit, I'd test a few tenths under 97 gr to see if 97 is your OCW.
