How would you do it?

[@Muschka01]

Does not the magnospeed interfere with the barrel harmonics, if so would not the point of impact be different?

[@38vsix]

Wow that seems pretty easy. I have shot around 600 rounds through my rifle trying to find a load and it’s still not great. 3/4 5 shot group with a custom rifle. I will have to try this. Thanks!!

I'm 2 years late, but I ask anyway. Very nice viseo and an efficient process. How did you select the powder to start with?

[@johnlampe3]

how do you get the correct sd or es without shooting multiples of same load?

[@ScottPriestley]

Thanks - I really enjoyed this and it kinda helped me understand what I saw with Satterlee plus things Ive learned from Erik Cortina. Looking forward to having components again someday.

[@elevationrifles]

Glad it was helpful!

[@geoffreywillis4458]

I like the process and really enjoyed the video!

[@elevationrifles]

Glad you enjoyed it!

I am surprised there are no comments or questions. Thank you for this method. Would you please let me know how you arrived at your start load. I would like to try your method to see if I can load develop my 6.5 creedmoor. I will be using 140 gr SMK's as well as Nosler CCs in 140 gr. Also I assume your distance is 100 yards. As well did you zero your scope or bore sight then develop? Sorry for all the questions but I was trying to develop this load and the reload shop I buy from told me to stand down till things picked up in regard to supplies. I loaded 25 rounds and shot those prior to stopping. When I saw you develop in 12 shots I lit up and am thinking I can do that with the 3 cals I have and save time and materials. All 3 are new and this looks like an invaluable method. Thank you in advance should you be able to reply.

[@elevationrifles]

My pleasure sir, typically start with 2 gn less than max load recommended and seating depth 20 thou off max or 10 thou of max magazine length

[@bawhitham23]

Would it be preferred to remove the magneto speed before you start adjusting seating depth?

[@elevationrifles]

I do sometimes but haven’t seen it make a difference

[@shanedavis4976]

Questions on how you started the test. Was the barrel broke in? did you start with a clean or fouled barrel? If fouled, how many fouling shots?

[@elevationrifles]

I typically clean the barrel and do a few sight in rounds and Start from there.

[@chroniclesofflight8898]

How far our do you have your target? Love this system you you're showing.

[@elevationrifles]

typically do this at 100 yds

[@justincredible1473]

How do you select which primer and powder to use for this method?

[@mrchoi100]

Where do you start your bullet seating depth?

[@elevationrifles]

20 thou off max length

[@brianbutteiger5880]

Where and how did you decide where to start your powder loads

[@elevationrifles]

Typically start around two gn less than recommended max by hogdon data

[@elijohnson8323]

when i do load development, I go a full grain at a time from light to heavy charge. How do you start with a charge and only go .2 grains at a time?

[@toolman5774]

How was the starting load determined?

[@elevationrifles]

I typically start around 2 gn less than recommended max load by hogdon data

[@Fisherhunt56]

Do you not reshoot under different conditions

[@kodyspur]

How do you decided where to start with powder loads and seating depths?

[@elevationrifles]

I typically start 2 gn under max and seating depth 20 thou of max if mag allows

[@juliusjames5577]

You recommend to start .020” off lands? Is that commonly the best accuracy for you?Seems like a huge jump to me but I also don’t shoot those high b.c. bullets.

[@elevationrifles]

It varies from one gun to another but after finding the powder charge I typically don’t have to adjust the seating depth more than six thousand.

[@ronzi83]

Hey, nice video! I have question. How do you determine coal of load? Let say i do 10 shoot lader test and result can be good if there is right coal , but if coal is not right it will fly all over the paper. Even if there is speed node in there. Thanks for anwser

[@elevationrifles]

Typically i just start around 20 thou of max seating depth or 10 thou of of max magazine length

[@lordzeppo]

Bud, love the video. Please get yourself a lapel mike, sound isn't great.

[@elevationrifles]

Thanks for the feedback

[@ThePerfeckted]

why do you have a tag on trigger guard of that rifle

[@elevationrifles]

Still new and didn’t really affect my shooting:)
