Well I went from 2 grains under max to 2 grains over and loaded 3 different 4shot groups. I planned on shooting all 3 regardless of outcome of groups unless the max load looked funky.

I checked for pressure signs and there were none. Pawildman Ive been loading enough to work up beyond max if everything looks ok but thx for the concern.


I was talking it over with my bud about which is better the accuracy or the velocity while we were shooting. I dont care much about case life, they arent that expensive and Id rather havethe inch group with more velocity but I'm usually am the oddball on things, so I figured Id bring it up on here. I will get the Chrony out and see what Im actually gaining.
I figure a 2" group at 100 is fine for deer hunting so an inch is plenty good enough.

My goal will be to get the overmax load down to that .5" group and then not worry about it.
