[QUOTE="Timeout, post: 1817298, member: 50852"] Great example of a ladder test and good of you to point it out. The problem that can arise with some ladder tests, is when either the rifle or the person steering the rifle, can't shoot accurately. A ladder test is meaningless then. If the rifle doesn't group @ 100 yards, and especially if the group exhibits a lot of vertical, a 300 yard or beyond ladder test is pointless. From what I'm reading in this thread the OP needs to forget about a ladder test. I could be entirely wrong, but my reason for utilizing a ladder test is limited to identifying a "node" and then centering my powder charge in that node. Once I have that determined, I work on seating depth. Others may see things differently and that's perfectly fine. Opinions are like noses, everyone has one and is entitled to it. 🤓 [/QUOTE]
