[QUOTE="6.5x300, post: 1041813, member: 10713"] Thanks MM, posted my next reply here before I got to read the previous one again...... I suppose a question I need to ask or research too is "how many rounds does it take to accurately judge or predict the ES value?" Can I accurately judge the ES numbers from only five rounds fired of a particular load? I am pretty confident I can judge the accuracy potential in the different loads with only one five shot group..... well.....I suppose the distance you shoot is going to make a difference too......... Ok, just a simple question without going too deep then, how many rounds would you have to shoot to feel you have an accurate indication of the potential ES spread? I mean you could have a piece of brass with different neck tension, or any other number of factors that could send one bullet out of the entire lot down range at a different FPS throwing the whole ES calculation off, without firing enough rounds to notice the obvious "odd ball load" you might not ever notice???????
