[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 1352476, member: 101859"] In competition we only shoot one distance. We tune there only. And the tune has to be much finer. Its tough to tune at 1k but I feel necessary to compete at the top level. For a hunting rifle, I am shooting at all ranges so I do care about ES and my tune does not need to be as fine. I want a wide forgiving load, so I like to see the chrony numbers to be sure of it. A competition rifle may shoot 2" at 1k with a powder window of .1 grain. Id rather have a 5" tune with a 1 grain window. Plus the logistics of tuning at 1k make it more demanding of the shooter and conditions. [/QUOTE]
