[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 3039378, member: 68875"] Give me load #1 all day long. These numbers are close, based off a 140 Hyb that I have several loads in my Shooter app. But BC is G7 .317, so close enough for a comparison. Numbers across the board might increase 2-3%. Load #2 starts out with too many deficiencies. More than double the group size to start. 7/8MOA @ 750 yards is a 6.5" group size at 750 compared to 2.8" for load #1. 3 3/4" more with no other errors. TOF is close enough. .900 vs .919. Not a lot of time for wind to effect bullet flight. 32fps ES allows for around 3.1" difference in vertical, so allow for 1.5"+/1 from POA. And that is at max ES between slow and fastest. Anywhere in between cuts that drop variation. 8fps allows for .8" difference. So allow .4" +/- for error to POA. Also, unless you have 20-50 rounds for ES verification, take those ES numbers with a grain of salt. That 8 could easily be a 30+ ES, and the 32 could be a 60. Increasing round count, the ES will never go DOWN. But I bet they go up. [/QUOTE]
