[QUOTE="Unofficial Gun Addict (UGA), post: 976017, member: 81139"] That might be something I'll look into next time I attempt to find a good load for a different weight in the VLDs... However, the process worked pretty good this time so I'm not going to complain. I found the sweetspot for the lands in 24 rounds and in about another 20 rounds... I had the powder and velocity dialed in. It was hard to choose between .040 & .080 initially, but I'm glad I went with .080. Increases pressure in the case so I increase velocity a little bit, and it's holding .60" at 200 yds in 5 shots... along with my crap flyer for the 6th, which was 1.44" @ 200. Overall, I'm pleased. Was going to test out to 600 this evening but the wind snuck in and shut that plan down just as I was packing up to go. Maybe tomorrow. Oh... And I guess it's all about what a person wants out of their rifle and bullets. I would have been good with .75" @ 100. It will fulfill my needs, but 5 @ .30 and 1 @ .72 is gravy. [/QUOTE]
