[QUOTE="dok7mm, post: 1332423, member: 90080"] It sounds like you are getting close. I usually start at .020" off and do powder charge. But I do a 300 yd ladder and it puts me on to two nodes with 9-10 shots. You can do a 200 yd ladder, w/ .5 increments. They'll be close together, so you need to plot each shot on your notes to keep them straight. Exact same neck tension and accurate powder weighing are soooo darned important in our consistent accuracy game, but often are hard to attain. Do you have access to an annealer? Work hardening is hardly ever consistent from one case to the next, especially after a few firings, and groups suffer. I would bet it's little things combined that have you scratching your head. A small variance in resizing, powder charge, run-out, neck tension, etc, all add up and you have to figure it out. I wish you luck, but examine each facet individually and you'll solve it. [/QUOTE]
