[QUOTE="woods, post: 432360, member: 6042"] Sounds like a demonstration of the basic premise of the Audette method of choosing an accuracy node. The Audette ladder test is as follows: 1. Load 1 bullet at each powder charge going up in steady increments, example 67.0, 67.5, 68.0, 68.5, 69.0, 69.5, 70.0, 70.5, 71.0 2. Shoot at 300 yards, 100 yards is too close to notice the difference 3. Shoot with the same point of aim, starting at the lowest and going to the highest 4. You must be able to label each shot on the target, either with spotting scope or going down to look at the target after each shot 5. The shots will go progressively up the target because of velocity increase, but you are looking for 3 or so shots that group together The theory is that if you load within that 3 or 4 shot group then any minor variations in velocity or loading techniques will not move your point of impact much. Here is a poor example [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/TARGETS/DSCN0914.jpg[/IMG] supposedly if I loaded somewhere around the 5, 6 and 7 loads then that would be an accuracy node. The POI are close because that is a level spot in velocity. [/QUOTE]
