[QUOTE="ajridgedell, post: 1079813, member: 30426"] Did my second ladder test yesterday evening. After these 12 shots, made about 63 shots fired since the barrel was cleaned. I started seeing some ejector swipes in the 92.8 to 93.6 range. I guess this pressure is coming from the barrel getting fouled? I can see a noticeable difference in the bore of the barrel from before this last test to after it. The temperature was around 70 and overcast with a steady 3-7 mph wind from my 10 o'clock getting up to 10 mph at one time i'm guessing. This kept the barrel at a good temp without me having to cool it much at all. I dialed left 1 minute for most of the test and 1.5 when the wind got a little stiffer to keep them all on paper which turned out pretty good since I was just guessing wind speed and hold and never having feedback on my correction till all 12 shots were fired. After my first two 4 shot ladders I dialed down 1 minute to get my last four shots on the target because the wind folded the top half of my target over. I was just glad all 12 shots made it on there lol. Right now I'm thinking of going with 89.2g and shooting that some to see how it does.
