[QUOTE="Buckreed, post: 2115573, member: 103984"] Here is my question to everyone. How do you reduce your ES? I shot a ladder of 15 rounds (incremental at 0.2 gr. each) over my magneto speed, plotted the results, and found two flat spots of velocity. 43.5 and 44.5 were both in the middle of the flat areas. I loaded 5 at 43.5 and 5 at 44.5. All ten were loaded exactly the same as the rounds in the ladder. On the 5 of 43.5 I got an ES of 78 On the 5 of the 44.5 I got an ES of 51 Obviously I would like this to be closer to 10. What do you suggest? Different brass? Neck Tension issue? Here are the components I'm using. RL 15 Winchester Brass Berger 175gr VLD Federal #210 primers 0.015 jump Thanks for the help! [/QUOTE]
