[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 27159, member: 12"] Go back to 12-24-02 and read the thread on load development with the Ladder method. Pick several powders load 15-20 rds each at .2 gr increments and shoot a ladder at 200-400 yards preferably. You will find 2-4 "sweet spots for that powder. To continue load development from at the desired velocity. Start the Sierra 142s about .005 in and come out. Start the VLD bullets about .025 in and come out. Try JLK 140s. Highest quality custom bullet out there right now. Sierras are all over the place on bearing surface so must sort by length of bearing surface. consider MRP powder instead of RL 22, very little lot to lot variance and not temp sensitive. BH [/QUOTE]
