[QUOTE="aushunter1, post: 1631096, member: 57533"] There are so many elements that make up accuracy apart from your handloads The rifle itself- *Should have good bedding of the action with the barrel free floating. [LEFT][SIZE=14px][FONT=verdana][COLOR=rgb(20, 20, 20)] *Action torque does have an influence on accuracy, you need to find the sweet spot & make sure it stays there *Have a nice clean/crisp & lightly weighted trigger Then everything you do with the handloads like using quality components, being pedantic about your case prep, using quality dies to reduce runout & doing it all consistently every time, annealing to get consistent case neck tension, it makes all the difference Aside from all that in the end what your trying to do with your powder type(burn rate)/incremental charges/projectile choice/fine tuning seating depth is to align this all up with the timing as it travels & exits the barrel. Some interesting reading on this- [URL]https://www.varmintal.com/amode.htm[/URL] [URL]https://www.shootingsoftware.com/barrel.htm[/URL] [URL]http://www.the-long-family.com/OBT_paper.htm[/URL] Then of course there is the person behind the trigger that has to do their part ;) So when you think about trying to get tiny groups, think about all these things & what you have done to eliminate any potential errors before pulling the trigger :cool: [/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/LEFT] [/QUOTE]
