[QUOTE="gohring3006, post: 1417581, member: 78762"] The only time I do load development farther than 100 yards, is when I don’t have a Chrony with me. Like maybe I forgot it, or battery is dead. I’ll look for vertical and it shows better at distance. As far as stability, you can have marginally stabile bullets group very well at all distances. SG will actually increase with range, so the whole stability thing has to be examined closely before assuming that’s the problem. If you are trying to run a bullet that is way to long for your twist, then you should expect poor results. 9 times out of 10, if your grouping good at 100 and it falls apart at 200, it’s either you, or your load sucks and needs more work.
