[QUOTE="DennisPA, post: 560098, member: 34463"] [COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana] I'm new to shooting for more then just plinking and reloading. My question is when you are ready to try out you latest recipe for reloads what is the scenario that you shoot to. Here is two that I have tried and I'm wondering if I'm way off base.
