[QUOTE="Left_to_ Lobster, post: 1898189, member: 113291"] Well my groups “significantly” opened up on both loads. I think I added variation accidentally. I used brass from the same box, powder from the same bottle, same primers..etc. The variation comes from how I loaded. My first trip I had set my powder dispenser to manual. Essentially dispense a charge, seat the bullet and type in the load again. My second trip I had it set to auto. When I set the pan back on the dispenser the scale zero’s and repeats the charge I input previously. While it was dispensing I was seating seating the bullet from the previous load. Since the powder dispenser and the press sit on the same bench I’m guessing movements of the press could through the dispenser off. Thoughts? I think I need to repeat the process of what I did originally Best load is still my 50.4 gr Here’s is what chronograph spit out: 50.4 (1.78” 5 shot group) 2732 FPS 2743 2688 2682 2749 48.8 (2.93” 5 shot group) 2629 FPS 2743 2721 2721 2599 Pictures of the groups: [MEDIA=imgur]a/bPdqK0k[/MEDIA] Thoughts?
