Trying to ocw test and apparently I'm not understanding what load I should go with. This is a 6.5 Creedmoor Lapua brass 147 grain ELD M and h4350 sorry the picture is sideways

Point of aim for the 41 grain is 5 inches under Center of Target. The point of aim for the 42 grains is 5 inches high Center of Target. The 42.6 point of aim is 5 inches to the right of Center Target.

What's wrong with the 41.4 load? I see the groups getting smaller then back larger once you get out the node. I would load up 15-20 more of the 41.4 to verify and see if you can repeat that group.

Agreed looks like a node from 41.1 to 42.0. You look for the center of the group and the relation of that point to the point of aim. All 4 of those loads centers appear to be the same spot.

id explore 41.3 , 41.4 , 41.5 , 41.5

load up 10 of each and fire 2 groups of each load. Fire one set small to large then let the gun cool and then shoot large to small. Average the two grouo sizes for each and then pick the smallest value. From there you can play with seating depth if need be.
 
Thanks for the info guys. Guess I should see the speeds next time.
