[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 698853, member: 10"] Had a customer come up yesterday, finished his new 300 Allen Xpress last week. He took the rifle home, did the barrel break in and brought the rifle back yesterday morning to work on the drop chart. I had used my "No load development" system on his rifle and came up with a load that produced 3330 fps with the 200 gr Accubond out of his 26" barrel length. We went to the range, we chronoed three of his loads that averaged 3380 fps with his lot of powder. Ran the numbers, and we set up at 650 yards. He shot two shots and both landed well under 1/2 moa but they were 4 moa high. Moved to 810 yards and shot two more shots. Easily under 3/4 moa and again, 3-3.5 moa high. Made a scope adjustment and he took two more shots at 810 yards. Impact was dead on the money. Moved back to 650 yards, dead on the money. Stepped back to 480 yards, drops again dead on the money. Then tried 375 yards and again, right on. Then moved to 1010 yards and drops were right on. I shot 12 shots to do the load development. He shot 25 rounds on the barrel breeak in, and he shot 14 shots on the range testing his drops from nearly 400 to +1000 yards and his rifle is ready to use. 51 shots total from the rifle coming off the manufacturing bench to ready to hunt with. That is what my system is ment to do and it works if done properly. After the scope adjustment my customer would have been able to hit even a rockchuck sized target with every shot he put downrange and this guy had never shot past 500 yards before. Just one of MANY examples of his this system works, works fast and works with very few rounds down range. Again, many ways to skin a cat, this is one of many. [/QUOTE]
