[QUOTE="remingtonman_25_06, post: 1938045, member: 1403"] I ask myself this, is the animal going to stand around for 10 minutes while you shoot 3 or 5 shots, probably not haha...Depends on the cartridge, intended use, and how warm it is for me. On average I usually wait a minute between 3 shot groups for big game rifles, and I never do load development in 100 degree weather. In the summer, I'll get out early and quit by the time it reaches 75 degrees. For 223 varmint rifles, I'll do 5 shots in a minute. My 240 WBY I'll let cool 2 minutes between shots just because it seems to warm up so fast. I never keep my head down on the rifle. I single load everything, write my velocity down, resituate my rifle in the bags, etc. [/QUOTE]
