[QUOTE="trebark, post: 399988, member: 19172"] Read, read, read...it won't take you long to learn what all these terms mean. Ladder Test: putting together reloaded ammunition with progressively higher volums of powder and shooting them in a round-robin order. Lands: if you look down the barrel of your rifle you will see it is 'rifled'. There are 'lands' and 'grooves'. The lands are the higher areas. The chamber of your rifle ends at the lands of your barrel. So miller's advice is to load bullets so that they are various distances from the lands. This distance is often called 'jump' (as in how far your bullet has to jump before getting into the barrel) Keep the questions coming. [/QUOTE]
