[QUOTE="Alan Griffith, post: 384866, member: 4686"] Was able to run back out this morning and check out something that looked promising for accuracy and ES/SD. Both the 32.5 gr groups (the first was the sighter load and then the next was within the ladder) ran .4 MOA'ish with low ES/SD. So, I loaded up 10 rounds each of 32.4/32.6 and 32.8 gr. I can't verify these exact weights because I "threw" my charges with my Harrell's Premium powder meter to see what sort of accuracy/numbers would present themselves. I was quite pleased. Groups ran .36 to .69 MOA @ 360 yds SD's ran 5, 9 , 9 respectively. Something else. Velocity was a solid 70 fps slower when I dipped the bearing surface in some Sinclair's powdered graphite; 2530 vs 2600 ish. So, again, not great velocity but very good accuracy, ES and SD's. Good enough to practice with. Alan [/QUOTE]
