[QUOTE="Topshot, post: 475478, member: 13285"] A couple of things that I have picked up when validating loads. 1, use Litz measured G7 B.C. values where possible and take the manufacturers advertised B.C. with a grain of salt. 2, Calibrate your scope turret adjustment for its inbuilt error. 3, Dont shoot anywhere near trees if there is any wind. They induce down drafts that will drive you crazy. 4, Take your time getting proper atmospherics before each shot, don't rush this. The instrument needs time to stabilize and must be calibrated! 4, Use "Shooter" for Android smart phones. It has a great scope error factor feature. 5, Take a cheap chronograph reading as a guide only. They have error too. Just a few tips, I am sure there are others. [/QUOTE]
