    OCW Results (Confirm nodes)

    I can agree with that. Had a lower "node" years ago (was it because of the powder lot, bullet lot, or xxx?) years ago I remember the load being lower but my seating depth was .006" deeper than that of the target above.

    OCW Results (Confirm nodes)

    I actually ended up going with 44. I don't think you can choose wrong with any 4 of the loads. Biggest group out of the 43.7-44.6 loads went .45x and 2 of the loads went into the .35x range.

    FWIW, Here is an OCW test with 175SMK and Varget loaded in .3 grain increments. Definitely a node from 43.7-44.6

    Here is part of my OCW test, you can see 40.9 and 41.2 has a pretty close POI. I adjust seating depth at the 41gn to tighten up the group.

    I don't remember the group size off the top of my head, but with the flier its around .4 MOA and with out somewhere around .26MOA

    41gn H4350 205M primer, Hornada 140gr BTHP .005 off the lands(works for my rifle) In my load development there was the node from 40.9-41.1, so I settled on the 41gn load. I can produce this group over and over again, just need to work on my shooting. LOL

    In the Hornady manual max charge is listed at 42gn with a 140 bullet. What bullet are you shooting?

    Just curious why you didn't load higher charge rates, yours seem very low. There is a node around 41

    Developing load for 6.5 Creedmoor bolt gun

    I would go with the 41.3 or 42 group and play with seating depth
