    and if none group for $hit. :D And when doing so and you have some that group good and some not say group 1-2 work but 3,4 & 5 are junk are you loading 5 more in .1 gr increments between group 1 & 2 to again find the best accuracy in that bunch of charge weights

    What Load Dev Method would you suggest or process that would work better. I can understand what your saying as it might not be the best. I would prefer to find a load with the least amount of components used if possible just due to components being a bit harder for me to get ahold of now days.

    Newbie trying to find a good load and need some help.

    I am 100% confident in the scope being mounted well and all mounting screws are tight. I can understand where the Brass could possibly be different from case to case.

    Newbie trying to find a good load and need some help.

    Testing was done at 100 yards. Length was done at 2.800 COAL. I have not checked CBTO yet. That was on the list to check tonight as I have some factory rounds from Hornady. And with the factory Precision hunter ammo with the 143 Eld-X I have shot 3/4" groups with this rifle multiple times.

    This is a hunting rifle so max distance might be 300 but would like to do some fun shooting at 500.

    Newbie trying to find a good load and need some help.

    I did shoot the 41.1, 41.2 & 41.3 groups on paper in 5 shot groups. Just didn't take the pictures of the targets yet. None of the 3 really grouped well at all. The 41.1 Group was about 1.75" The 41.2 group was about 4" and in a large vertical string the 41.3 group was about 1.5" group

    Newbie trying to find a good load and need some help.

    I want an accurate load. I was just using the Chrono data as was listed in all the Satterlee method articles and videos I Have watched. Again, I am still new with this and the Load Dev is always what I have struggled with. So I want to learn and find the best way to find an accurate load.
