Ladder Test for finding powder charge

[Frequently Banned Troll]

The one thing that affected accuracy the most for me was to put the bullet boat tail jct at the top of the case neck/shoulder radius; night and day difference in two different 7's. No idea what bullet you're loading but the prc is made to seat the bullet long.

The bullets I loaded are about like that not much different BTO than Hornady factory loadings of same bullet, just a touch seated out - I’m just under .020” off jamming into rifling on both rifles.

I expected to hit pressure and have to pull a few bullets tonight, but no signs of pressure even a ways over max listed load.

The shooting went well aside from some gusting winds that may have impacted it a little, but at only 300m still some useful data. Will plot out on the node nonsense and report back. The sample of two is almost meaningless but hopefully my choice for a 10 shot test tomorrow pays off I suspect this one from my rifle and also a 2fps velocity difference between the two. #11

My son’s rifle didn’t like the eldx as much , but not too bad.
