Interesting read

Recommended Posts

As a hunter the only thing I really care about is the first shot.

Maybe the second also.

I think I would be better off shooting one shot at the target every day with a clean cold bore than 25 shots on the same day.

Interesting and probably true.  I’ve built loads around a 5 shot group that was .4 moa only to shoot it a month later and it’s 1.1 moa so I do agree with what they’re saying.  I build all my loads based on ES of velocity.  That’s the one they left out that REALLY matters.  A 1 moa rifle with an ES of 7 fps is much much better at 1000 yards then a 0.25 moa rifle with an ES  of 30 fps.

I watched that Hornady episode the other day. Very interesting and makes sense. I've been spinning my wheels with my latest load development. I may have to change my strategy.
