[QUOTE="mr ed, post: 2859652, member: 6777"] To me group size is more important than speed. I once had a 1970's Remington 700 varmit in 22-250. factory ammo was 4" at 100 yds. we tried all kinds of combos with that gun. Finally we found a load nowhere near the top end using Nobel Powder, a Sierra bullet and setting the bullet all the way against the rifling. It would then shoot unbelievable groups. I usually load 100 rounds in 20 round 1/2 gr increments. then when I narrow down the 2 best, I load 100 rds in 20rd. 1/10 gr increments. [/QUOTE]
