[QUOTE="Browninglover1, post: 672192, member: 29966"] How far can you shoot during load development? I often take the 3 or 4 best loads at a hundred and test them at 300 to see which will do best at longer ranges. For whatever reason, the smallest groups at 100 don't always produce the smallest groups at 300. However, my smallest groups at 300 seem to continue to be the best shooters at the longer ranges. Also, when I do the testing at 300 yards I load up 7 of each load and shoot groups of 7. It takes longer to test, but it really shows you the accuracy potential of your load. It also gives you the chance to call one or two bad shots and still see how your load is doing with a 5 or 6 shot group. [/QUOTE]
