TES Episode 125, Load D

Good pod cast fellas.

Situation: You mock up a round (Bullet & Brass) and have a barrel chambered for it. During load development you can't get less than a 1 inch or 3/4 inch group.

Questions:
Has anyone seen this happen?
Do you start to change bullets and look for what the barrel likes?
When you custom chamber a barrel to match a round do you have a better chance the barrel will like the bullet?
 
Ok so if I was acting attention Adam does his ladder test with varying oal. Is mag length considered max if you can’t reach the lands at mag length. And can you give a run down of a ladder test. If I’m thinking right it would go something like
41grn
2.80. 2.70 2.60
41.3grn
2.80 2.70 2.60
And a few more charge weights with the different oal’s. How many of each oal? 3 I’m assuming. How much do you adjust seating depth while runnning the ladder?
