[QUOTE="7mmTikkaShooter, post: 1748462, member: 92915"] Ok, so it seems as though this thread got a little hostile but in the mix a few people have mentioned that what you performed was a “Saterlee Test”. Not the same as a “Ladder Test”. They are very similar in concept just skinning the cat in a different way. One can make an pro/con argument for either test. Personally I believe the Saterlee test does work and have used it. What I see in your results would be promising to me in the top 4 charges. What [B][I][U]I [/U][/I][/B]would do is to run that test with 3 loads per charge, then average their velocities to plot your graph. Maybe start higher with your first charge say #8 and load a little past where this test finished since you said there were no pressure signs. I personally wouldn’t walk away from this combo of components yet. Hope this is helpful and good luck. [/QUOTE]
