[QUOTE="Unofficial Gun Addict (UGA), post: 989653, member: 81139"] Stanley52... Please don't take offense as I was not challenging your belief that OCW allows you to predict where nodes are on your rifle. What I was attempting to convey is that OCW appears to be another method of load development, whereby one is trying to find a node that with all other variables being the same, gives a wider margin for powder/velocity variances while still keeping the point of impact from changing dramatically. My concern was with Barrelracers conviction and more specifically, his assertion that others should not comment with respect to node prediction based on barrel time and length, as they had no real world experience with which to reply, but that he did have real world experience so his opinion was basically the only one that the OP should listen to... and everyone else should shut up. I'm always open to new ideas and hoped that he would reply with his methodology, because if it seemed sound... I would put it to the test. I was not overly optimistic that either he would... And if he did... That it would be sound. I sure as hell have never thought of myself as knowing everything.... And one reason I love this site is because members help me to broaden my knowledge base... And give good suggestions i had not thought of. I'm open to trying Barrelracers theory if he would be willing to post his methods, however, in my mind, those 2 variables alone (barrel time and length) seem much to simplistic to predict nodes. Node prediction to me sounds a bit like the holy grail. I'm not saying it doesn't exist, I'm just saying that I think it would take a hell of an adventure to find it, and more time, money, and labor than most men are willing to commit. [/QUOTE]
