[QUOTE="Crowe284, post: 1292144, member: 97064"] "I know my gun loved the off the shelf precision hunter 162." Dissect and reconstruct the factory load. I have done this many times in the past. Take all important measurements from a loaded factory round (oal @ ogive, headspace, neck tension, case length, etc.) Shoot the loaded rounds over a chronograph and load up to that velocity node while watching for pressure signs as you may/probably are using a different powder/primer combo. This method has worked for me to get same results or better with factory ammo that shot lights out in a particular rifle. Most of the time my "duplicated" loads proved to be better in terms of accuracy, es and sd due to the quality control factor you will have by loading your own. Taking measurents from good shooting factory fodder is a heck of a running start in my book. [/QUOTE]
