[QUOTE="Freebore, post: 116577, member: 873"] Matt, I use the OCW method to develop a load. Why - I do choose to shoot a specific bullet at a required velocity. Obviously a chrono is required for this process/method. To obtain the accuracy along with this method can be time consuming. I do usually end up changing powders during this process, so you do need the powders in that 'burn rate' area to achieve this goal. Notes and targets are retained during this process for reference. As the song goes 'you can't always get what you want' you may have to refer back to a 'slower' charge that does work. A given rifle will only do what it is capable of doing, if that makes sense. Example, My 257 Lightweight 26" barrel is actually slower than my 24" 257 Lazermark.! my2c [/QUOTE]
