[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2694547, member: 15054"] same weight I would use the same load and see how they group. change a few tenth's grains and see if they shoot better. As long as you are not at the top of the load scale with the current load. If you are then back it off a bity and work up. On lead bullets with NO coating you can push them too fast and they will skid through the barrel instead of twist. You will see this on your paper target as a bullet impacts it sideways or a ragged hole. I have pushed many fast in my 45acp and seen the bullet afterwards and it looks like the sides were sanded with 36 grit paper. My gun is stout and I can shoot some wicked loads in it without worries,, but those do not group well. [/QUOTE]
