[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 270901, member: 10"] Looks to me that if you put these loads side by side facing a mirror, they would all look the same. There is not a hell of alot of difference between any of them. To claim one load is better then the others would be silly as its just impossible to say that with loads this close. If your primer pockets are tight and stay that way for at least 4 firings, your using very comfortable pressure. I have customers bring in load data all the time very similiar to this, something, often times, much more in depth with many different loads but the theme is the same, basically they are all good loads. I call this "tinkeritis". Its the overwhelming need to test every possible load to the varying 1/2 grain of powder and to every 5 thou in seating depth variation and with every possible primer option available. Simply put, take your pick, at long range, there is noone on this board that could tell one from the other at long range. Get off the loading bench, get off paper at 100 yards, pick one of these loads and get out and start practicing field practice shots. Your rifle will last longer, your hair will grey later and you will become much more proficent with your rifle and actually enjoy it much better as well. You are loading good ammo, that is clear, your load development is done, pick one and get out and start field practicing!!! Good job :D [/QUOTE]
