[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 279477, member: 12"] True but different goals and totally different powders. That practice will eat your lunch in the LR game. The SR shooters use highly refined measure practices with powders that can be thrown with good uniformity with quality measures. The winners have techniques to allow them to throw to .1 variation normally. The LR powders do not work as well. The variation can be up to 1.0 grains or more especially with a non standard dropping technique. It is routine to have large grain powders stick in the drop tubes and chamber until the next charge is dropped. That will kill a LR group with vertical for sure. Been there done that and you must have a way to get uniformity of the charge to .1 or less adn that is weighing each load somehow on a quality scale. Take your pick of beam or digital but you had better use one or the other. I know of zero top LR shooters that are not weighing each charge. BH [/QUOTE]
