[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 150343, member: 7"] Your results are the reason that I have no use (at all) for the ladder test. What seems good on the ladder, can be an awful load. Then you have to do it all over again (with multi-shot groups). When you shoot a ladder, you are taking a one shot "sample" of the 5 shot group - it can be any one of the five shoots - on your first test, if you did it over again on the same day, with the same loads, you would NOT have two ladders that showed the same thing. Next time at the range... take three sets of the same loads A - 51.5 through 55.5 B - same C - same Then shoot three separate ladders and look at the results. If you think you are confused now, wait til you have three of these ladders, and each tells you a totally different thing. To see which of these loads is the best, shoot 5 shot groups and be done with it. . [/QUOTE]
