[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 924790, member: 11717"] As mentioned, "stabilization" isn't the correct term for what you're talking about. If a bullet does not stabilize @ 100 yds it will keyhole and it will not stabilize @ 200 yds. There are other terms like eliptical swerve and precession that are more correct. I have often shot better MOA groups at 200 & 300 than 100, but not always. Like others have also mentioned, I do my load work at both 100 and 200 (actually 212) depending on wind conditions. Groups at 200 yds and farther are better for evaluating a load if the wind is light or calm.. [/QUOTE]
