[QUOTE="Mark37082, post: 2697341, member: 120066"] Consistent accuracy is the most critical attribute of a rifle. Velocity matters specifically when stretching out target ranges and determining the effective range of a particular bullet. At short range 100-200 yards velocity variations mean very little. ES of 20+fps can still pretty much go in the same hole. That same ES of 20 fps can be dramatically different when stretching out your target range. I don’t fret over achieving maximum velocity, but do carefully watch velocity spreads when developing a load. [/QUOTE]
