[QUOTE="BergerBoy, post: 1064553, member: 85712"] Mikecr, I invite you to Northern Nevada to do some shooting sometime. I am a life long student of long distance shooting and love to learn all I can from whom I can. Shower me with all your knowledge... Seating depth can/is huge in grouping with out a doubt, but at longer distance (over 1k yds) I have found higher ES issues to be the main reason for vertical dispersion. On burn efficiency, I just noticed a correlation between smaller groups and very low ES. I shot just over a .25 in yesterday with a load that had an ES of 8 fps. My other loads had ES of ~ 28 fps and I grouped .75-1.25 in. I'm not saying you always have to have an ES that low to shoot that small of groups but from my experience it helps and in the longer shoots-over 1500 yds, it helps a lot. It was just something that caught my attention. [/QUOTE]
