[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 2701683, member: 48043"] I start thinking on load development and groups as soon as the rifle is on paper. Most barrels are starting to settle in by the time you have the 5 to 10 shots needed to get a decent 200 yard zero. Heck, the last rifle I put together took [I]zero[/I] load development (a Savage Impulse hog hunter 300win). It's shooting the ammo I've been loading for my Browning 300win to sub moa the first two outings. I had a load in mind for it, and it wasn't happy. I turned around and shot the stuff through the Browning and it's now got another load. Go Figure. I may play a bit this spring to see if I can tighten groups a bit on the Savage, but there's not much gain to be had. [/QUOTE]
