[QUOTE="ShootnMathews, post: 2786870, member: 59915"] Well my original problem that started this thread is the new box of Lapua shot like dog crap and I couldn’t figure out why. Now I’ve found once it’s fire formed and all the case prep run through again it’s just a matter of adjusting my charge to find the node again which I think the loads tonight will be right in the money. My .002” shoulder bump measurement is measured the same way as all my rifles. I take a fired case from that rifle and measure it with a shoulder comparator and adjust my die to bump it back 002” of an inch. This has always given me the best accuracy from my rifles. And I know 3 isn’t the best sample but I also base it on trend. If I load several 3 shot groups at .2 grain increments and each group shoots tighter than the previous as I move up I don’t believe it shot better on a fluke. We’ll see how these shoot tonight. I think they should shoot under 1/2 moa which is acceptable. [/QUOTE]
