    @caberslash thats exactly why I'm going to load another 20 up. Do a 6 shot group next to the 4 shot group like as in on the same big target with another shoot n see next to it. Then measure the new group, and add it to the existing 4 shot group which will give me a total group size for a 10 shot group.

    Then the remainder rounds I'll use to validate at the gongs at 570 and 620y

    Keep it simple- hand me a model 7 7mm08 and I'll be right

    I appreciate your approach, mine is much more crude.

    For me it's decide on a COAL (fit and function in a magazine) then the seating die never moves again. Throw one powder charge approaching book max, shoot it and if the rifle and case are still in one peice then it's go time. Repeat until enough ammo is there then have a good few shots for zeroing and drops then away hunting/shooting.

    I am more of a reloader than a hand-loader.
