[QUOTE="Bigeclipse, post: 995430, member: 52437"] Unfortunately I have pretty much decided to go with OCW test since ladder test results can be screwed up more so than OCW tests when it comes to shooter error. Also...I am not exactly confident at 300 yards yet which is minimum distance for ladder tests. Most my shooting is done at 200 and less. The 300 yard range we have closed a lot due to mud issues. I did not realize you shouldn't look at muzzle velocity data when using OCW. I actually heard you should. I will record the data anyways and post pics tomorrow as im doing tests tonight. My goal is to get a load with this rifle that can shoot 1 MOA out to 400 yards (no I will not be shooting at deer this year at that distance...only about 250 yards so I really only need 1.5MOA haha but my plan is to have two rifles for hunting, this lightweight mountain rifle good to 400 yards and then my 300 win mag which I am building that will be good out to 600+ yards. That rifle I will certainly be spending lots of time on load work up and developing a load which is sub .5MOA (hopefully!) [/QUOTE]
