I realize this is a very general question, but. The load manuals always show a wide range of charge weights. Are the loads usually more accurate in the middle of the range shown, near max, or is evrry single barrel that different.
I need to work a load up. I have some SMK Palma 155gr bullets, some Sierra GameKing 165gr bullets on hand now. I have some Nosler BT 180gr bullets coming and will be buying either SMK 168gr or 175gr when I can find them.
I have Varget, IMR4895, H4895, H4350 and RL15.
Those different bullets combined with having several powders to try makes me really hope there is a quicker way to find an accurate load.
My rifle started as a Remington SPS Varmint, .308, which gives me a nice, long heavy barrel.
I don't want to use the word shortcut, but is there anything that might make finding a good load easier?
