[QUOTE="mrb1982, post: 954406, member: 50419"] I read this thread last night. I was kinda under the impression that it was a bunch of BS as far as the whole thing about going to sleep and all that. So this owning I tool my 7RM Sendero out. I have been working up a load with 180 Berger Hyrids. Did the seating depth test, then worked up my charge and ended at 70gr H1000. The best I could do with this load at 100 yds was 5/8 MOA. So I start by setting my 200 yard zero. 3 bullets touching about 1" high and 5/8" to the right. Best accuracy I had out of all the test loads. Then I was starting to believe. So I back it up to 400. It shot .43 MOA from there. Pretty pleased to this point. I don't have a chronograph so I have to reign in my MV the old fashioned way. This has given me a fair velocity to get going back to 700. That should give me a better number but this is a smoking hot load. No ejector marks or other brass problems. Just starting to get a hair of a primer flattening. We'll see how it runs out to 700. I am now a believer in the "yaw" theory by to some extent. I'd think there are probably some other factors that come in here too as far as the mental side of shooting and whatnot but I now believe it has viability [/QUOTE]
