[QUOTE="Tiny Tim, post: 1899190, member: 87887"] As Dmagna said, It can go either way. "My experience" has been that at either end of the loading spectrum (starting and max loads), they may vary more from charge weight to charge weight tested. At the low end, pressures may not be high enough to get a consistent burn with some powders, and at the high end, you may approach "pressure spikes" that contribute to the wide ES/SD. A full ladder and seating depth load workup will generally give you the best load for the bullet/powder combo you have selected. [/QUOTE]
