[QUOTE="Tikkamike, post: 518008, member: 22242"] This post is just becoming a ****ing match, ...well i wanna **** too so here it is. I dont do ladder testing like this, i dont get it, i half agree with everyone. B-rad and I think alike 5 shot groups are great for load development, that is how I work up my loads. I shoot 5 shot groups at 200-300 yards because there are fewer variables to deal with. then once I decide on a load I start backing up and testing it out to my max range with that specific rifle. I want to use my best loads so i see no problem in developing at 200 then playing with it at long range, wont my best group at 200 also be my best group at 500? HOWEVER I also agree with Jeff when he says 500-1000 and 1500 are all different worlds. I have only shot out to 1200 regularly SO FAR and even 1200 makes 1000 look like a walk in the park.. This post was about a ladder test I personaly think they are a waste of time but maybe thats a lack of knowledge on my part. I just like big samples of what my gun is doing not 1 shot samples that may or may not be a flier or a gust of wind. as long as the end result is that same who cares how you get there, good luck on your load development and I am going to read about this ladder testing maybe I can learn something.
