Need some advice went to range to try and start load development on a new bullet. My 28 Nosler would not shoot bergers to save its life. Changed to the 175 gr ELD-X and started with 86.7 gr of US869 and CCI 250 primers and loaded up to 95 gr max of US869. Looking for a node and before I could finish the string or get finished wind picked up and started blowing my target off stand and chronograph over. I have put a picture of the group on. 89.7 to 91.7 pretty much stacked vertically. Should I continue on with my loads at a later date or pick a node and start.

If nothing else you could keep going to find pressure limits, while you are chootin' anyhow.
If the wind wasn't a factor you could repeat the interesting loads at longer ranges.
Whats that distance there?
