Roy,
I say this because if you do alter the powder charge to tighten a proven OCW load, you'll move to the edge of the "sweet spot" and be forever "walking the tightrope" to accuracy.

Dan,
I appreciate your comprehensive response.
I snipped in the quote what 'rang a bell' as I studied your response. You never know when you're gonna strike a chord!
"walking the tightrope" is OK but I fall off way too often. What I mean is that accuracy will be steady state for a period of time, then flat fall apart. 1/4 MOA shooting jumps to 1.5 MOA then I'm
After scratching the knoggin a bit I do some trouble shooting and sooner than later I end up back where I was which is with the same exact load and great accuracy.
It may be that I have the load tuned to exactly for a certain set of environmental conditions, as in the day that I worked it up. Change the day, change the conditions, off the tight rope ya fall....
Am visiting family in Seattle this weekend but will do your process in a week or so. I'll learn a bit more than I do now.
I wonder if OCW and OCD are compatible /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Thanks for the discussion.
