[QUOTE="BoomFlop, post: 2863931, member: 55851"] I'm super confused on what you are trying to achieve with this test? You basically just loaded a pressure ladder in my mind. I would have done a seating depth test at 70 grains with a new rifle. Found a consistent poi as you are looking for in this test by adjusting seating depth. I then would have shot that powder ladder at 600 yards and looked for a 3-5 charges that shoot a good waterline while watching for pressure. To me this test was basically a waste of components. You didn't find pressure, you did not test seating depth and basically do not know if powder charge is right but the seating depth is off. Based on the target, I would agree that 73-73.5 does show some promise, but some of the other groups maybe a more consistent load that need seating tweaked. I wish you the best bud, good luck!
