[QUOTE="manitou, post: 1655107, member: 105280"] I have two newer rifles that shoot 1/2" and better groups at 100 yds with my handloads. I haven't stretched their legs yet, but my chrono shows both have variances of 20-30 fps from one round to the other with H4831sc. I never have chronied any of my loads before with other rifles and have had great success to 600 yds. I don't shoot past 600 as that is all I have available and wouldn't shoot game past 600 due to FPE with calibers I shoot. Before being "enlightened" on this site, I have had good shooting, like stated above, to 600 with other rifles that are 3/4" rifles. Could my chrono be mucked, or am I realistically putting out ammo like this? I never get (questionable, unexplainable) flyers and everything seems consistant. I don't neck turn or use mandrels but use quality brass, anneal, and trickle charge each round as-well-as make sure my COAL are as close to identicle as possible. I do full length resize and bump my shoulders. I don't compete and shoot distance mainly just to be a better hunter at my pre-set distances. I suppose I may be lazy, or just busier than I would like to be. [/QUOTE]
