[QUOTE="7mmTikkaShooter, post: 1683567, member: 92915"] What are you getting for an e.s.? Energy wise, 2815 FPS with and 175 gr pill should be plenty good for about anything inside 500 yards and then some. Once you start getting outside of that a wide e.s. will begin to create accuracy issues. I’d recommend stretching out your target to where you’d call your max range and see how they group there. If you’ve achieved an excellent grouping load at 100 and you are getting a low e.s. then it should maintain a nice grouping farther out. If so, and the bullet is still within its velocity window, then there’s no reason to touch it. If it’s a big spread then you could work up to the next accuracy node and check e.s. [/QUOTE]
