    Hornardy's #50 Podcast

    So after two prompts by @stug I finally watched the podcast - had to do it over 3 sessions, its very information dense.
    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QwumAG...bmFkeSAiNTA%3D. Thanks Stu!


    Pity I missed it when it came out in 2022, it is a real game hanger for accuracy nuts. Anyhoo I'm interested to hear how those who have watched it and considered its implications have changed their load development process?

    Trying different Google fu I found this - which adds considerably to the validity of Hornadys premise . . . .

    At some point I’m going to do a ten shot group to find my true zero.

    Haha, one of my resolutions is to never again alter a published BC!

    Must admit I’ve never changed the BC, maybe fudged the velocity to get it to work.

    If someone made a reticle with a true 1-2MOA centre dot, it would put a lot of expectations into perspective.

    People who claim they have 1/2 to 1/4 MOA rifles are either benchrest world champions or don't understand statistics...

    My Athlon has a .3 mil dot, and I just figure the shot - assuming a good wind call, is going to land somewhere under the area it covers. Seems to work really well.

    Hey that's a good article.


    I was going to get around to writing up the same thing with my results but there you go.


    Load development the way everyone does it probably isn't real.
