[QUOTE="Rhovee, post: 1406647, member: 101820"] If .020 shot great at a lower powder charge, I would shoot groups of .006 each direction going .003 at a time cause i know i am close. With my 28 Nosler, when i ran a node close to 3000 FPS .020 off was most accurate. The picture i showed above was coming out of that node and go back into another higher node. The 3 shot group on bottom right was at .026 off. I originally stuck with .020 off and increased powder .3 grains at a time and had a flat spot in the 3050 range. This was found while shooting a ladder at .020 off but the three shots were a horizontal group. So i knew that over .9 grains had an ES of 8 but my seating depth was off a touch. The horizontal group was 1.75" at 300 yards with no vertical. [/QUOTE]
