[QUOTE="nicholasjohn, post: 1703193, member: 109113"] Vandy, I'm learning, too - ALWAYS refining the process. [I]I'm going to learn from you[/I] when you get done with this and post all your stuff. Something will pop up, and someone will chime in with a tip that will be new stuff for both of us. That's how this forum works, and it's the best source of expertise I've found yet. There are other good ones ( you mentioned two others that have also been very helpful to me ) but this one is my favorite. Varying the charge weight by +/-.2 wouldn't be a bad idea; .3 might be better for this large capacity case. ( I do .2-grain increments in 30-06-sized cases.) You mentioned that you're getting into a time crunch, and up against the season opener - that suggests taking a larger increment, if you do any charge weight juggling at all. You might be better off to just work out the seating depth ( and any other necessary accuracy-tuning work ) and just go hunting. The fiddling with fine increments might just prolong the process, and make you start getting nervous about getting it all wrapped up in time for your hunt. Don't forget to post a picture after you've let the air out of an animal with this rifle. Have a good hunt. Nick [/QUOTE]
