[QUOTE="Hondo64d, post: 1718166, member: 1390"] I’ve started doing my load development at 500. I like it because any vertical dispersion easily shows up, almost negating the need for a chronograph. In fact, the last load I developed, I swagged the velocity and put that into Ballistic AE and took it right to 820 yards. I then used the velocity truing function to get my expected come-ups at 820. After that, dope lined up from the muzzle to 820. Never even put it over a chronograph. In the end, all that really matters is what happens at the target. If I have a load that consistently groups well at 500, I’m pretty happy. John [/QUOTE]
