yote...DS is looking at ES between the loads to assist in determining where the nodes are. As you roll through the different charges you'll see the plateaus in the speed which also indicates nodes.

I will take some beef with one of their arguments/conclusions - the idea that different powders/loads shoot best at a certain velocity in a given rifle. That may be true for some rifles, but it certainly isn't true for all of them.

?

Thanks Judd
Im trying to understand the principal. I've wasted a lot of bullets.


One shot is all it should take.

Jason, one shot ladder finally sunk in on me. I had to visually see a test to understand what you were explaining. Thank you

I'm trying to see it. You measure velocity of the incremental charges then inspect the data looking for a lull in the increasing charge. Then load up that lull and be done.

Could you just shoot into a dirt pile for the velocity data? Or does POI mean anything?

Either. Typically the lull will indicate a similar poi.
