    Range Report OCW vs Ladder test

    Ive always done ladder test at 500 & 600y to develop my rounds. Figure if im shooting at distance, test at distance. Thinking about trying a new bullet out using the OCW test at 100y. Anyone use the OCW test and still have stable bullets accurate out at 1000y ? Wondering witch you do...

    Remington 5R in 308.....accurate loads

    Re: Remington 5R in 308.....accurate loads Thx Scott. I know some people do load testing at 100m but to me its counter productive. not only are you using 5x as much ammo but human error can give you false info really easy @ 100. 500+ is much more forgiving.
