[QUOTE="Lonewolf74, post: 1341393, member: 96274"] Savagelover thanks for your response but I don't think you follow what I'm trying to do. I don't care much what the speed ends up being, obviously I want my load to perform well within the capability of the cartridge I have but I'm not looking to squeeze out all the speed I can. I use the chrono looking for a velocity flat spot between 2 or 3 charge weights because in theory that should be a node. And in my way of reasoning this velocity flat spot should be confirmed on paper by very little vertical stringing of those shots. However the problem I have is the paper isn't really reflecting what the chrono is telling me. I have successions of shots with little rise or even drops in velocity but a few inches of vertical stringing on paper. And I have the opposite where a succession of shots has 40-50 fps increase in velocity but very little vertical stringing on paper. So my question is should I go off the chrono or the paper? I'd like to do both but I don't want to burn up that much time and resources. [/QUOTE]
