[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2783835, member: 15054"] Making reloads more accurate I hate to say is NOT consistency. If it was that then all powder charges and all bullet seating depth if kept the same would be accurate and they my friend are not. It is not more FPS and it is not less FPS. It is the ability to find the load that each gun wants. Where that load lies is in the zip code of barrel harmonics. A barrel will move when the ammo is set off. Some call this whip some say harmonics others may call it oscillate. Whatever you call it there is a period of time when the barrel muzzle is in an area of peacefulness .. lets use that word. This peacefulness is in the center-line of all that is good in the universe ,,It the muzzle is there for a nano second, You get the bullet to leave the muzzle at this point in time and you have found the accuracy node. Usually you can be as much as .5gr off in powder weight and still be in this Node. You can try to play the fps game and may find the upper Node and you can also find a lower accuracy Node. That is what I feel makes an accurate load. Read this and look at post 3 DFX target he shot.. that was some many times fired brass that was wiped clean it was different head stamps and loaded at the range with a 454casull case used to measure powder. Not consistent.. but was in the accuracy Node. It was his best group of the day.. and the upper hole was a winchester case with a crack line in the case head. Zero Consistency . here is the post.
