[QUOTE="Deleted member 107666, post: 1703998"] No man, no butthurt at all, if I gave that impression it was not on purpose. I'm grateful for everyone's inputs. Looking back, I do wish I'd have loaded up 3 rounds at each charge weight base on that ES. I also think I may have ran with a less than optical seating depth as I wanted to load as long as practical. I had 2 good groups. .60 moa .060 jump when fire forming and testing seating at same time. But I went with a slightly worse grouping depth of .010 as even that 73gr was a slight compressed load in virgin brass. I think I will revisit. 060 jump with a quick 2 or 3 groups...from there, I'll run another charge weight test. Based on the previously pictured charge weight test, would you start the test any higher on the charge weight, or go all the way back to 74? Thanks again for the inputs, its starting to click, slowly. Can say how frustrated I'll be if I find out I missed the node all together by only loading one at each charge:)....best to remove all doubt though and run it again like you suggest. [/QUOTE]
