[QUOTE="jkupper, post: 770553, member: 61637"] I would compare myself a novice compared to a lot of these other guys (even though I have been hand loading for ten years). What I can tell you is that using the same lot of brass, with similar weight in grains is important, so is making sure that all of your loads are as close to the same in powder measurements as you can get. The biggest difference between loads that I have seen is in using different powders. I leave everything the same and change powders, and them load for different charges of each powder. I am fortunate in that I load for a wide variety of calibers, so I have a good and varied powder supply. I have tried shooting 10 different powders at what is supposed to provide the same velocity and gotten ten different results. Some are definitely better results than others. Be patient and keep working. eventually you will find something that works for your gun. I almost gave up on my 30-06, but I did finally find something that worked very well after about 600 rounds of test firing! Have fun with it! I love my time at the loading bench almost as much as I enjoy my time at the range. Best of luck! Joe [/QUOTE]
