The bullet flight tells the truth...always with good ammo.
The challenge is to shoot at a given point, watch the splash, then when conditions are similar make the appropriate holdovers.

My 26” Bartmein, Tb 9” can, jump of 0.025”, and 42.5 grains of 4350 gets 2800 fps.
Again your rifle will tell you what you can do with the jump and can and powder load.
I have used scott’s method for my 308 Win and 6.5 CM rifles. It works for me using 0.2 grain increments and having 3-4 charges defines a flat spot or nodal point.
Typically I find three nodes in my barrels and pick the highest or next highest node.
Then perform seating depth and stretch out...
I have experienced zero shifts due to powder temperature from begining to end of a competition using IMR 4064, ambient temperature effecting powder and rail/ring expansion and barrel fouling.
Ty 42.5 grains.
