    Well the weather gods smiled upon me today with a crisp calm day off, finally got back to the range with the BLR and my second ladder.
    Got some good results and have settled on a load pending confirmation rounds.

    Results as below...
    45.5gn avg 2550fps with an S.D of 16.4fps
    (This was best grouping load from previous ladder)

    47.2gn avg 2657fps S.D of 3.6fps

    47.4gn avg 2649fps S.D of 10.5fps

    47.6gn avg 2680fps S.D of 10.8fps

    47.8gn avg 2688 SD of 6fps

    48gn avg 2680fps S.D of 6.8fps

    Groups tightened up at 47.4gn and that is where I will stop, got 3 shot group just under .5" and velocity 2649fps that's plenty good enough for this old Lever.
    I'm going to load a few confirmation rounds but honestly I'll be happy if it's around 1" it's not a gong gun after all.
