[QUOTE="nwmnbowhunter, post: 2861316, member: 103431"] Start 0.020 off lands. Shoot ladder in 0.3 increments from 77-81 grains. Depending on rifle should reach pressure in that 80 range [ejector marks] Do the ladder test at least 3-400 if you can. Should find decent group in that 78-79 range or about a grain under pressure. Fine tune from there. I will say my rifle hated h1000. I really wanted my rifle to like it but couldn't get it much under one moa. Loved both RL26 and n570. Easy and fast loads well under 0.5 moa out to 700 and 1000 My go to load is 199 hammers Adg virgin brass N570 83 grains Cci 250 0.020 of lands [ 3.66 in my case] 3180 fps out of 26 inch 9 twist bart. 19 for 19 on animals out to 450 yards so far. Took it to Africa on short notice without full load workup and ph's were impressed. Under 500 yards i would consider 199 hammer. If preparing for over 500 stick with 215 berger. [/QUOTE]
