My first take on any form of OWC test - Can I get opinions?

    I did this variation of Saterlee test (mostly as a test/practice since ive never done this type of precison reloading) - I shot 13 3-shot groups of each weight charge and plotted it. The groups across the board were not fantastic, but it was 35 degrees, 30 MPH wind, and I was freezing, so not optimal conditions. I have my own opinions on what charge ranges I should look into, but im more interested in getting opinions on those who have much more experince than I do.

    Thanks for any insight.

    Cartridge: 6.5CM
    Powder: RL16
    Brass: Norma LRP
    Primer: CCI LRP
    Bullet: 130gr ELD-M
