[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1541485, member: 85987"] When the book loads are 7 grains off for a max I really couldn't say. You found your seating depth I would start with a chronograph about 2 grains off the book max. I load 4 of each at 1/2 grain intervals to 1 grain over book. If I find a flat spot in the velocity and it's an acceptable speed I will run .2 from the bottom to the top also over the chronograph. The load that jumps out of a really good es would be for the next colder temp. It usually will shoot a few rounds with good sd then as it gets hot it will climb out of the extreme spread. Hunting guns I want 10fps or less in 5 shots with the cold bore being not the slowest. Target guns 10-20 shot strings and no more than 12fps. Usually you can get single digit in both if you use good components and give everything full prep to remove as many variations as possible. Also check your scale to make sure it is true. [/QUOTE]
