On a first pass I do similar to you shrpshtrjoe. I usually when working up with a new powder I make lots of 5 rounds each, in .5 grn increments in powder checking spend cases carefully for pressure signs. |

I am with Dallan, except I load 6 rounds, just in case I screw up a shot. I have the advantage of being able to shoot off my back porch, if I had to drive to a range to shoot I would probably load more of each sample. |

I'm not fanatical about accuracy, I load up 5 to test for pressure & velocity. I find a couple that are promising and load up 20 for testing and zeroing. For medium/big game, <2in at 100yds is okay. I like < 1in, but if I get a load that's moving along at a good speed and it's 1.5in I'm not likely to muck with it. |

I did dump my elk at 380 yards this past year so better accuracy is warrented somewhat as shots where I hunt tend to be somewhat longer than normal. -DallanC |
