[QUOTE="Rkripler, post: 1375092, member: 100362"] I am in the process of trying to build a load for my 28 Nosler. I am working up to different loads one being the 180 grain vld's and the other the 195's. I recently went out yesterday and shot several different loads in each group. I was testing using a megneto speed chronograph at 100 yards as that is all I have right now. Each load was done in groups of three. I found some loads that where my S/D was with the 180's was 1 but did not group the best. When I shot the 195's, my best S/D was 5.7 but my best group was at 26.1 S/D. My question is should I try and stay with the load that gives the best numbers or stay with what groups the best. I know this my sound like a dumb question to some so I am sorry but I am new and trying to learn as much as I can from people who have the experience. I don't want to waste time and money in chasing the wrong thing. I have not tried moving on or off the lands yet either. These have all been .020 off. The rifle is a custom Defiance action with a #4 brux barrel with 1-8.5 twist 26" long. The 180's I am using ccr 250 primers with between 80.2-80.4 grains of h1000. I am getting anywhere from 3170-3192fps with the 180's. Here where my 3 3 shot groups with the 180's [I][B]80.2 grains h1000 3185, 3186, 3170 80.3 grains h1000 3182, 3190, 3187 80.4 grains h1000 3192, 3190, 3192[/B][/I] The 195's I am using Fed 215M with 85.0-85.3 grains of RL 33. I am getting 3105-3139 fps with the 195's. The four 3 shot groups with the 195's are as follows: [I][B]85.0 grains of RL33 3132, 3117, 3132 85.1 grains of RL33 3108, 3116, 3105 85.2 grains of RL33 3087, 3139, 3118 85.3 grains of RL33 3138, 3110, 3129 Any info or feed back would be great.
