[QUOTE="loosefur, post: 1913507, member: 70275"] Hmm. I don’t think I’m with you on that hehe. My thick skull might be interfering though. Let me try to understand what you’re saying. Let’s say I have six different charge weights and six different targets. In that scenario, you’re saying I need to fire one shot of each charge weight at each target? So each target would have six shots, each of a different charge weight? I’d have a total of 36 rounds for this theoretical test? My understanding of the purpose of the OCW method is in alignment with yours but our means of getting there differs. Dan Newberry’s site says this: “…you will then fire your first shot from the first group of the graduated charges. You fire this shot at target number 1. Allow the barrel to cool, then fire a shot from the second graduation at target number 2. Wait for cooling of the barrel, then fire a shot from the third graduation at target number 3. Continue this “round robin” sequence until you have been through all of the targets three times. At this point you will have a three shot group on each of the targets.” His method, which I followed to my understanding, isn’t the same as my understanding of yours. Are our methods different or are we lost in translation? [/QUOTE]
