    Chronograph is a crony beta master. So probably not the most accurate, 99.5% accurate if you belive the box

    I'm no expert and only trying to experiment and learn. Just putting up my results if people are interested.

    It might be all bollocks and jibberish but it does appear to have worked for me, 6 shots inside an inch and the 7th just outside, all over a backpack no rear bag so I imagine the shooting wasn't perfect. Im not saying that if I went and picked a random load and shot that it would shoot worse, maybe I'll try that next.

    To me the loading up 3 rounds at each powder level and shooting a group then going off the smallest group makes no more sense, as its plenty easy to bring in shooter error and when your comparing 3x sub inch groups you can end up kind of chasing your tail.

    I did note that the first shot was the slowest of the group but I don't think the chamber would have been hot enough after 1 shot to increase the temp of second round enough to make a difference.
