I see a lot of talk on small es, and the use of it to 'determine' the node.
And developing different loads chasing a small es on velocity.
In my experience I've found reloading practice such as annealing, uniforming flash holes, Wright sorting primers, along with other consistent practices are the most influential towards a tight velocity spread.
And the node is found by group size at various ranges while reloading practice will produce consistent results.
I'm also going to add I rely on my target at extended range to determine the spread of my velocity and shooting under 10 rounds across a magneto or labradar does not give a great picture on the the es of a load vs a 100 rounds at extended ranges imo.
I would like to hear others thoughts and techniques to manage their velocity spread.
