And lets you shoot a lot, to boot.
First one got us some info – our loads are a couple hundred FPS slower than the book. It also showed us the upper end appeared to be tightening up. With that info, I did a .2 grain ladder test, starting at the last top end. So,
Yep, group gets tighter as it gets faster. Next, another .2 grain test, starting at this upper end. Since we are getting close to a compressed load, I’ll only do 3 rounds of each. Just in case I see pressure signs, need to stop, and then unload some rounds.
Tomorrow looks like a good day. With last night’s thunderstorm, I think we’ve broken the back of the hazy, hot, humid summer days. I worked outside today rebuilding porch steps, and barely broke a sweat. And now I’m sitting in my yard, overlooking the pond, and it is cool enough to keep the bugs away. I love northern NH.
