[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1983865, member: 69478"] I would find your lands. Then start .020 off. Seat bullets in .005 increments deeper and shoot 3 shot groups until you find the best one. Then start with powder. Pick your powder of choice, start 2gr under max, load from 2gr under max to book max in 0.5gr increments. Stop if you hit pressure. Pick the load that either has the lowest ES or the load that meets your velocity goals and still has low ES. If you’re only shooting 300 yards, I would focus more on accuracy than an ES that’s low. Anything with an ES under 30 will be good enough. [/QUOTE]
