[QUOTE="Weda, post: 188806"] What Steve said... I used to take my Chony freaking everywhere... got real invovled in the numbers and concentrated on making sure the numbers were what I want instead of "seeing" what the load was doing. The rifle will tell what works not the chrony. Chrony's are a good tool but the results at the "target" are what matters. Powder burn in the barrel, complete burn, plays more of a role that what most give credit for , just my .02 Bullets going to sleep? That theory has been around for a long time. I have had many people say just what uncleB said.. witnessed may times but yet no one has proved it or even showed data that supported it. Does anyone here have some pics to show me that the groups are marginal at 100 yet sub MOA at 500? The next question is.. do you use that load for hunting? I always go for a one hole group at 100 and then test the load through the 100 yard increments to 1000 yards. I don't work backwards. [/QUOTE]
