[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2476970, member: 116181"] Yeah I agree, basically this whole measuring to the lands thing is looking for a safe maximum, once you find that max, pick a starting point somewhere short and run it. It's amazing that the majority of the time that one of the rules of thumbs typically works good enough for most shooting - 0.020" off, book COL, or match a factory loading. I go full-nerd for some rifles, but two years ago I took a whitetail with literally the first load I ran through a rifle - 140gn Partition, book COL, charge was 93% of max, shot under an inch at 100 yards, dialed it up the number of clicks the calculator told me to, hit a 3" dot at 200 yards, killed Bambi's dad with the next shoot. So easy 😂 [/QUOTE]
