[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1339844, member: 68875"] What bullet? What Powder? What case? In MY opinion, a ladder test is not shooting 3-6 rounds of each charge weight at a single target. It is exacy how you are doing it. 1 round at each charge weight, from minimum to 3 grains ABOVE published max load as long as you know how to look for any sign of pressure and stop when you see the first one. I do my ladder tests at 300-600 depending on conditions. How are you going to go mark 40+ impacts after each shot at 400-600 yards? Also, I shoot over a chronograph to help identify flat spots in velocity across consecutive shots. Higher charge weight at 400 yards will not necessarily equate to higher bullet impacts. It Has more to do with barrel harmonics and when a bullet is leaving the barrel. [/QUOTE]
