[QUOTE="nowler, post: 66191, member: 2305"] hi matt a couple of points of interest or observation for you. 1. my AI would not shoot high pressure loads well. i could not get it to settle in the higher tuning node at all. i suspect that maybe all the lugs weren't bearing equally but i am not sure about this.... 2. if your load is accurate, then why change it? if it ain't broke..... 3. your ballistics program could be well out. are you using accurate temp, humidity, altitude, air pressure readings etc. etc. these can make the difference. also, what kind of chrono was it as this can make a serious difference sometimes. you could check the chrono by firing some .22 subsonic over it to see what they come in at. 4. velocity is well over-rated. 200fps is not gonna kill anything any more dead imho. accuracy is the way to go over velocity any day. most of my loads are not super hot and i have no complaints. derek [/QUOTE]
