[QUOTE="tony d willIiams, post: 2461206, member: 108777"] AT 600 yards and less, 0.1 grain makes little difference. If, (a big word of only two letters), you have set the bullet/brass to the correct length for the rifle, the proper bullet for your purposes/game, a powder that will work within the temperatures you shoot at. I have chased that rabbit down many tunnels, types of powder, brass, bullets, types of bullets, primers, temperature of reloading room, bullet shooting temperature, direction of travel, how far from the equator, moon phase, (I am a bit anal), as have many others. Finally I decided that for the ranges I was shooting, under a half mile, I had enough data. And the information shown was that ± 0.1 grain, or half/third a stick of powder made not a lick of difference. My breathing and heartbeat caused more changes in end of travel position. Now I am preparing for mile reloading and better body control. More rabbit holes. But thankfully, I already have a bit of background and data to push around. ±0.01 will reenter my variables. And bullet seating will approach ±0.0005, or less. [/QUOTE]
