[QUOTE="drenge, post: 201709, member: 9300"] Lightvarmint, That is an interesting theory. I'd be very curious to see what your results are tomorrow at longer range. Let me know what happens. I'm shooting in a higher altitude (which usually changes the station pressure) so I wonder if the lighter bullets will be easier to work with. I'm using H4831sc in a 7mm RM with the 168 vlds. I have been unable to shoot because my rifle is with my smith getting some work done. Usually I'm at 6,000 ft plus when I shoot. If the 4831 doesn't work well maybe I'll go to the H1000 or Retumbo to see if the slower burning powder helps at all...and of course play with my seating depth. I think it's correct to assume that if you can get your bullet to stabalize at a shorter distance you're going to have better accuracy. [/QUOTE]
