[QUOTE="Bob Wright, post: 1573177, member: 104363"] I agree w/ dok7mm. Many guys will have low sd and es and shoot little tiny groups. Some with higher double digits sd and es and shoot little tiny groups. It's a good indicator that load consistency is achieved in single digits but if accuracy is repeatable with a higher es /sd, you can feel comfortable not chasing something that has little effect on that particular recipe. Especially on an AR. I just tried reloading for my factory stock AR trying to replicate some Barnes loaded ammo. It ain't working out to be easy getting .75 in groups with my first experiment. Its a 200 yard gun for coyotes at the moment, lol. Needs much more tinkering. [/QUOTE]
