Dramatic drop in velocity with exact same components - strange! Ever seen this??

[QUOTE="kb1035, post: 2293640, member: 15645"] I have experienced this exact scenario in my Rem. 700 30-06. Same brass, same powder (from same exact cannister), same bullets (from same box), same charge. No significant ambient temperature differences either. Yet, a proven load showed 175-200 fps velocity loss and decreased accuracy/consistency. After this aberration, I tested the load on two later occasions and it returned to normal form. The only thing I could come up with was maybe an unknown chronograph, powder scale, or similar issue. It still puzzles me to this day. Good luck on the mystery. [/QUOTE]
