[QUOTE="Jcann, post: 3169211, member: 33119"] Just enjoy the pursuit of handloading and don’t get wrapped around the axel with group shooting at a certain distance. Contemplate the logic of my rifle shoots 1 1/2” groups at 100 yards, 1” groups at 300 yards therefore it’s a good load. This statement assumes it shoots <1/2 MOA even beyond 300 yards, but does it really? A good load will perform good throughout its ballistic arch. It’s up to you to determine what is good. I can shoot <1/2 moa at 100 yards and also hit a 10” gong at close to 1000 yards but I couldn’t tell you what kind of groups it shoots at 200, 300, .... yards. Last weekend my gong got twisted up after getting hit at 490 yards. It was almost sideways on edge in my view through the scope. I had 3 maybe 4 inches of plate to shoot at. Busted it on the 2 shot after a corrected wind call. My point is, LR hunting and PRS type shooting is not group shooting, if you want that get into benchrest. [/QUOTE]
