[QUOTE="Dry Heat?, post: 1602634, member: 105495"] We have great conditions here in Arizona for shooting. And it’s not “all those 1/3 MOA Loads”. That represents the best I’ve done. But I can get about every rifle I own to shoot 1/2 MOA eventually. Might not be the exact bullet I wanted or the powder I thought would be the best but I can usually find something to shoot well in my Rifles. I use a ChargeMaster 1500, Rock Chucker Supreme Press (retired the original Rock Chucker that I bought in 1975 though it would go another half century), my older Dies are RCBS but I like REDDING Dies better for quite a few years now, especially the micrometer seating dies. I use a Hornady COAL gauge. I tumble my fired brass, lube, FL resize and trim them, tumble them again, prime, powder and seat my bullets. They always go bang and several times I’ve had the first load I tried in a rifle shoot so well that I ended Load development right then and there. I have a Chrony Gamma but from what I hear it’s a piece of crap so I suppose it’s as f’ed up as my ChargeMaster so there isn’t much sense reporting those numbers. I don’t shoot NRA events. Wasn’t a Military Sniper. But I can shoot anything REAL well. Rifles, Pistols (beat the Club Pro at Pro Gun in Vegas in rapid fire Pistol and AR Rifle Shoot- 20 hits-19.3 seconds. That’s 10 targets with a S&W Pistol then 10 Targets with an S&W AR at 15 yards). Revolvers (love to Load for and shoot my 44 Mags and my favorite, the 500 S&W 4”. I have a Browning Challenger II 22 pistol that hits anything I look at when I’m holding it) Shotguns- (Trap is too easy, I shoot high 80s- Low 90s on Sporting Clays.
