[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 1486888, member: 101859"] Tuning is a skill. No different than loading or shooting. Knowing how to go about finding an accurate load and then keeping the load tweaked as weather changes and the barrel wears is something that has to be learned (you have to want to learn it). I shoot almost exclusively at 1k. I tune and shoot there often. Well over 10k rounds down range at that distance. Seeing the way things change and the way a load works at those long ranges has made me dislike the marketing associated with LR hunting. A consistent 1k yard load is not an easy thing to come by. Yes I am a lr hunter and I think its a great way to take game, but the notion the $$$ can buy those skills is pure BS. Tuning, shooting, connecting at long range, they are all skills that have to be practiced. They can not be bought, research is great but it does not replace actual range time. [/QUOTE]
